Default Do I need to replace the bump stop?

So, after having my stock springs basically fail, I replaced them with a set of OME 619 heavy duty springs. Stupid me, forgot to reinstall the 2.5" bumpstops that I installed with my skyjacker BB. Do I really need to put them back in, or am I ok without them? Its easy enough to do....

i would if i were you....do you disconnect your sway bar? if not, it may not be worth doing...but if you do disconnect and get flexed then your tires may rub or you could overcompress your shocks and/or springs.

I don't know if it makes a difference, but I didn't put the skyjacker 2.5" spacers for the BB.

I do disconnect, not too frequently though.

Either way, ill put them back in tomorow
