What is the height of the original rear axle bumpers. And.....what does the front use for rebound bumpers?

JD_AMG

They're called bump stops.
Front shocks have them already installed on the rod.
Here are measurements and spring rates for some bumpstops including the rear:

Where are they located on the front?

JD_AMG

I said above they come already installed on the shock piston rod.
heres an example:


What exactly are you trying to do?

Iam trying to get rid of the huge hunk I hear and feel when going over RR tracks. Sounds like the car is going to break in half. The sound is coming more towards the front. I saw those bumpers that go on the a-arm but I guess that's for a different year.

What all mods do you have?
Your clunk could also actually be your exhaust hitting the underbody of the car.

johnfin

Its 100% stock. Exhaust and hangers look good. Nothing bent or scraped.

If you can get under the car I would try and move things and bang on things to replicate the noise. If you cannot find anything I would suggest replacing the shocks with something good (not shitty autozone replacements) - something like bilstiens at least. Worst case scenario if the noise doesn't go away you will still have vastly better ride, handling and feel with better shocks.

$25 bucks for two, not $100 like most people are selling them for. I just milled the original spacers.

What's the mileage on your car?

How hard are you hitting the tracks if your bump stops are coming into play with stock suspension?

If that's the case... shocks are most likely blown on the 15+ yr old vehicle.

johnfin

85k miles. The original rear stops were gone, hence i replaced them. Original shock worked, grew when i removed them, but replaced them with kyb. Not fast over tracks so iam thinking the front struts are shot.
