OK. ive changed my front bumps stops out once before... and im tellin ya, there GOTS to be a trick to doing that. I used a fricking floor jack and a 2x4 to press them in. I talked to a guy in a shop that said boil them in water? i guess itll make them softer, i just dont know how im supposed to handle a steaming hot peice of rubber without gloves? If anyone knows a secret to doing this, it would be greatly appriciated. Thanx!

Lubrication :P

A little dish soap works wonders! I take and insert the fender side in to the cup and then push/lift it in to place...
