Bump Stops Jounce Bumpers Needed

[Dublin]

OK I've attached pictures of my front and rear Springs and lack of bump stoppage. The first 2 pics show what looks like the missing cup for the Jounce bumper and no puks at the base to make up for the 4" lift. The last 2 pics show the jounce cup and jounce and also no puks below for the lift. So I'm in the process of getting the correct shocks for the lift and it looks like I'll need the jounce cups (is that what they are called) and standard jounces for the front. To get the right amount of puks for front and rear to compensate for lift what do you guys suggest. I think it will involve a little work compressing and such to dial in whats needed. I've been driving this TJ around without and now I'm worried because I didn't know the PO did not do his diligence in lifting this Jeep so I need to take care of this ASAP.

You'll want to pull the springs to cycle your axles to know what you need in there. It may require other movements if you can do that (adjustable arms) or shaving some things with a flap disc.

It looks like a spacer lift. So I'm not sure if the springs will coil bind before you ever get to what is your next limiter.

It's a 2" spacer and a14 1/2' spring front with a 13" spring rear. I just installed adjustable front upper and lower control arms recently. So am I guessing correctly that I need jounce cups and probably puks. I was thinking puks mounted on the bottom because I can add untils dialed in.

If you just want the cups I might have mine still. But I can say the currie bump stops work on top and bottom and have some nice adjustment in them.

Thanks for the advice, I'll order the Curries up.

You'll need the jounce cup on the fronts at least. You may find them cheaper somewhere.

You'll also need the jounce.

Then you can cycle and figure out how much bumpstop. Hockey pucks and a tap work great on the lower perch.

Not with the Currie bump stops.

You have a more than usual amount of nuts on your TB bolt. What's the story?

The second nut acts as a jam nut. I added it as a preventative measure after having issues with my previous track bar staying tight.

Thanks. Yeah, I assumed it was such, but never had any issues with mine staying torqued. The Currie bolt is long enough for me to want to copy you on this though
