Interesting so you think the holes will line up?

Can you post a picture since many are interested? If to much trouble that's fine. I was just curious how they look? Thanks

How much did you trim off the bottom/side of the bump stop?
Do you have any close-up pictures you can post?

I had to trim about 3/16" off the bump stop, where it would hit the part of the inner fender that is "folded over".



I don't have a digital camera, so it isn't easy to take/post pics. I just put a fresh roll of film in the 35MM, and I'd rather not take and process/print 24 pictures of the bumpstop.

I was going to avoid cutting off the bump stop mount lip, but the lip doesn't do any good with the ES bump stops. What I did is cut the lip off, then I cut and trimed a 3/16" thick 5" x 1.5" piece of metal to mount between the bump stop and mount since the mount doesn't offer enough structual support IMO, for the ES bump stops. They would probably be fine without the metal support plate I installed, I just felt better with them in there.
I also cut 1/2" off the bump stop height to give me more drop with my air bags. And yeah, with the mount lips cut off they bolt right up !

Thanks, very nice write up. I also ordered the bump stops in Red and received them. They look very nice and well made, Should last a lot longer than the stock ones.
