The tyre looks very close to the chassie now removing the bump stop may cause it to rub? Just do 1 side if it doesnt work buy another from the wreckers.

Do u have enough up travel in your shocks??

They look like MK bump stops, before you cut, grab some MQ ones from a wrecker cause they are already short.
