Bump Stops

I've done a quick search around the forum, but couldn't find what I was looking for. I've got a gq with 6" lift and 33" tyres. As they are starting to wear a little low I was thinking of getting 35''s as I was told this is the largest I can fit without modifing the gaurds. From what I understand reading the various posts around the forum, I should actually replace my standard bump stops with extended items to prevent the tyres from hitting the gaurds on articulation. Does anybody know anyone around Sydney I can buy extended bump stops from and roughly what are the worth?

Just put a appropriate size piece of RHS in under the original bumpstop.

80 series front and a peice of approx 2 inch steel between chassis and bumpstop for the rear (best to fit suspension, flex it till it scrubs then measure, id add a little bit to allow for bumpstop compression )
