Default Bump stops ?

So I was just under my Disco and noticed the bump stops were kracked and one of then was so bad that when I was messing with it, it chunked off.. Being a lifted Rig was thinking of just going with the extended Bump Stops. anyone have expirience in them and where are they avalable?

You can buy them from the dealer if needed. Are your front tires wearing on the radius arms, if not don't worry about it.

At full turn the tires don't rub at all. I was almost expecting it when I made up my mind about these tires.. so far so good.

The extended bump stops are nice for keeping weight on the wheel.. I am thinking I may jump upto them from my stockies... Still thinking on that though!!!

so a 3inch bump stop will result in the 4 incher since the stock place is about an inch. With llesra's 4inch he would be pushing 5inch ? then again you have a taller lift than what I have..

Funrover, can you explain to me how extended bump stops add weight to the dropped wheel.
