Bump stops?

Chipride-slow. · 11-12-2009, 01:29 AM

Im new to S10 forum. No one could help on blazerforum with this one. But I have a 99 4door blazer Ive lowered it 2/2 so far but I wana drop the back more to make it look lower. But my rear bump stops are already hiting with just 2in blocks in the back and I was wondering do I shave them? or can I just cuz some of the bump stop off? I have alot of bumpy roads and dips were I live and my blazer still gos places it shouldent cuz its lowered but Im woried about bottoming out.

I was able to unbolt mine...Not sure how the 99's are mounted.

you can do that to remove the bumpstop, but it is in his best interest to remove the whole bracket assy as well

I looked at the bump stops on stylin trucks and Im not sure if mine bolt up like the ones they sell. I know my bump stops are just pushed up into the bracket on the frame. But I think Im going to go with triming them.

Considering the frames of s10's, 2 door blazers, and 4 door blazers are different from each other...

seeing how i didn't even watch that episode...i heard about it at work
seems like maybe you should stop watching yourself
i haven't watched southpark in about a year because of switching to direct tv. thanks for telling me what i should and shouldn't watch though. highly appreciate it.

bagddime · 12-07-2009, 01:38 AM

nice extreme s10. i got a regular cab ls 1998 s10 and want to put a xtreme body kit on it. i got a 3/4 drop and NEVER have problems with my bump stops though

***98layinframe*** · 12-07-2009, 08:25 AM

i swear you bunch of idiots can find anything to argue about..

but for the original question,

blazer - pull that huge foam bumpstop out (it pops out of the metal clamp mount) and trim it down. Theres 3 large sections to the bumpstop, i cut the middle section in half and then round the end over to a point so i looks just like the factory end. This softens the impact when you hit them. Reinstall.

truck - just cut the entire metal bracket off along with the rubber.

DriftinBlzr · 12-07-2009, 10:26 AM

Here's how I did mine for my 2" block drop...

I popped the snubbers out and cut them at the 2nd groove from the bottom which shortened them about 2.5".

At ride height...

Later, Doug

Wow the blazer has a cool bumpstop setup going on there.
