Default What Bump Stops for Viking front coilovers?

1999 Camaro Z28

I was looking at the Viking front coilovers and was wondering what people are using for bumpstops?

Will the original ones fit?

Thanks

The Viking shocks will come with a rubber bumper already installed on the shaft, and the upper mount utilizes the factory setup still so no extra stops are needed.

Give us a call... we offer the guaranteed lowest prices and expert tech help with the Viking brand shocks as well as many others.

^ This.

I bought mine from Eric. He is a man of his word. CHEAPEST price of any LS1Tech sponsor by far. Spent a good 20 minutes bullshitting with me on the phone talking about go fast stuff. Good guy, excellent sponsor.

One thing I'd suggest is to buy Moog Upper Shock Mounts, and Isolators as well. Chances are the stock crap is toasted by now.

I have them in my garage, I can give you part numbers later if need be.

Yep - that's what I grabbed.

Somwehere around $120 shipped from Rock Auto. Search google and you should be able to find a 5% off discount. If not, PM me, I have one.

Default factory installed?

I have the viking front coilovers ready to go on. Not seeing a bumpstop though in the kit. What is everyone using for bump stops?

Mine didn't look to have any bumpstops on them either, just a small o ring. I ended up using my stock bump stops over the shaft.

Same, they fit on there pretty good.
