Re: Extended Bump Stops For SPOA
I just removed my front stops, welded in some 50mm box and refitted the stop to the box sections.
On the rear i just welded in some 50mm box to the plate where the stop hits.
I'm not SPOA just lift springs.

Re: Extended Bump Stops For SPOA
You want to set the bumpstops to a point where they stop the spring as it goes flat under compression, over flexing leaf springs shortens their life.
