Extending hilux bumpstops
Posted: Tue Mar 09, 2010 5:37 pm
Hello all,
Before you say it I searched, which revelaed sfa.
I have put some new springsin the lux with some longer rs5000's. As the shocks are a fair bit longer I now need to extend the front bumps about 60mm and the rears around the same.
Now the question is do I use steel to put under the bumpstops, on top of the springs the raise the stock bump and hold it there with longer u-bolts. Or would it be better to extende the part of the stop that is on the chassis?
Cheers
