Picked up a pair of the Jeep bump stops yesterday, they appear to be a very good match to the OEM bump stops, too cold here in northern Ohio to install them, have to wait for a 'warmer' day. Picked them up at Summit(since I was in Akron for a gun show and Summit was only 5 minutes away from the show). Summit was $17.97 for the pair, O'Reilly wanted $27.99 each.

whatever bump stop you get, make sure that with the rear springs removed to simulate bottoming out should it ever happen... with the body resting on the axle via the bump stops make sure you still have clearance between your drive shaft and anything else. the e-brake cable bracket on the tunnel underneath the car i believe is the lowest point, and if that contacts the drive shaft especially an aluminum one will act like a cutter and ruin your day.

I removed my spacers and used the standard bumpers
from RockAuto ("jounce bumper" is another name for
these). -1" w/ 17" rims and 285 series tires, no prob.

3rd gen bumpstops are the best.
