Default Front Bump Stops

anyone got ideas about what to use to put on the lower swingarm as a bumpstop, for the existing rubber bump stop to hit. basically to work as an extension to work in conjunction with a 4" lift. :confused:

I presume you mean you what to add something to the coil seat where the exsisting bumpstop hits :confused:
The most common thing that is done and have done it quite a few times already, is to use a rubber hockey puck which you just glue in using silcon that is used for gutters.
You can then also raise the shock at the front by the same amount to regain the loss of up travel by gaining extra down travel.
If you go to my how to section of my site you will see pictures and plans of how to do it.

maybe a set might pay for a banner add??
