I had them on mine, but they put added strain on the shock. Just do yourself a favor: -Go to a sporting goods store, and buy 4 hockey pucks -Go to the hardware store, buy two 3" 3/8ths inch hex topped bolts with appropriately sized nuts and washers -Make each bumpstop by gluing two hockey pucks to each other -Let glue dry (best to let it sit for a day) -Drill 3/8ths inch hole in the middle of each bumpstop -Insert bolt, with washer on the same side as the top of the bolt -Take apart your rear suspension -Drill a 3/8ths inch hole in the middle of your spring pad on both sides (left and right) -Insert bumptops -Tighten nuts (NOT TOO TIGHT!) -Put rear suspension back together I've spent a relatively large amount of money (~60) on rear bumpstop configurations for the KJ, and this is the one I am currently using. |
