DON'T use Daystar, They'll break off when you pull out of the driveway

I prefer Prothane or Rancho

yeah but fenders prevent the tire from turning ;) given the choice of a tire stuffed into a fenderwell and being rendered useless I'd rather have bumpstops.

Nope,

Them fenders was meant ta keep the gumbo outa yer face.

Bumpstops actually have a purpose, to keep your axle from putting your motor thru the hood.

Best $10 I've ever spent...boat rollers cut in half!

But wait, dual purpose, put 'em inside of TJ rear coils and they act as spring retainers that allow slack for more drop as well. Rockin'!

:idea:

I personally find that softballs fit really nicely in my coils? Yeah, sad but true, and it works really well... One day ill actually spend some real cash on the right stops, but for now on my college budget, a $2 ball works great... Hugh

I think Interco makes the finest bumpstops.

Mine are 36" tall and fit on the wheels :flipoff2:
