Just wondering if anyone has found any advantages to adding longer bumpstops after an ~2.5" lift. Front? Rear? Both?

I have and always had the teraflex fronts. The rear, I have went from 2", then 3", then 3.75", now down to 2".

Unless you have done some trimming to your flares, you might rip one off. Also keeps the longer springs from "stacking"

Teraflex fronts with the lower lip trimmed off and currently have half a rubber mallet on each side. Gonna swap to pucks eventually

The Teraflex 2" kit takes care of the bumpstops front and back. Nothing extra to do.
