Resurrecting this thread. So, my build is 2.5”OME with 1.25” BL and just added 33’s, so I need to re-check my bumpstop. Apparently, my shocks are about an 1 1/2” too long. They’re RE but I called and they’re Bilstein 5100, not sure on the valving though. They sell them with a 1.75” BB, but on their site they’re the same shocks they sell with a 3.5” SL. The extend collapse values confirm this.

I’m going to change to Rancho 5000x, but can’t afford it now. I was thinking that in the meantime I could just set my bumpstop about 3” and I’d be good till I can get them in April or May. Just don’t want to go to all the trouble twice, when it would only benefit me for a couple months. Thoughts?
Also, can someone recommend a good bumpstop for the lower spring perch? And I’ve never tapped for a bolt, but I’m assuming it’s not to hard?
