 Bumpstop tipsI compressed the passenger side of the front axle to see where my bump stop was effective and turns out it's not. I'm hitting the top of the track bar riser on the frame before the bumpstop.
How big of a deal is it to have one side stop higher than the other. I was just going to install a metal riser on the old bottom mount so that the passenger side is not bottoming out. I can't think of any reason but thought I would ask. _________________ 1976 Bronco "Green, Yellow, whatever", 1969 Bronco "Red", 1972 Bronco Stocker "Kind of Blue/Grayish" |

Bumpstop tips Not a big deal, I've actually reduced my amount of up travel on purpose on my drivers side until I rebuild the 4BT oil pan.

Re: Bumpstop tips x2. It won't hurt anything. If the bump is set right you won't see much change in travel and it's working fine now.

Re: Bumpstop tips Yeah, just something to keep in mind when wheeling. You might crawl over that rock with the drivers side on the way up, but it could get a little tippy on the other side when coming down...
Unless you plan to baja this thing. That could be an issue. _________________ 1973 Bronco, 351 SEFI, Locked, discs, 35's ZF-5spd and Atlas 4spd. 235:1 Crawl Ratio. It may be ugly, but it's slow. http://www.ucora.org |

Re: Bumpstop tips I have enough 2x2 square tube to do both sides so hopefully issue solved ;)
