I used bumpstops from a TF BB kit. They work perfectly, but it also depends on what size tires and wheels you are using. I run 35's with a 17 x 8, 4.5BS wheel. You can buy bumpstops from just about any online vendor, and Teraflex will sell you theirs if you call them direct.

I wouldn't recommend this if you are going to run 35" tires, especially not if you plan on disconnecting your front swaybar.

Call me silly, but I'm not using anything. I assume that you don't need them and if you did they would have included them in the kit.

Same with me If one uses bumpstops because of to big wheels, the lift is not enough ......

I thought the whole purpose of the bump stops was to one keep the shock from topping out when the axle comes up as the other side droops?
