Re: trimming the bumpstops...



Scott,

I have the tokico setup on my ride and I got the poly bumpstops. I did not
trim these I left them alone and to my dismay I had to replace them about a
year ago, because they were shot. So I went with the stock rubber ones and
left them alone also and I really have no problems with them being the way
they are. As for your question I would probably say an inch.
