I don't think i've posted this before but you can cut the rear bumpstops to get more travel in the rear. This will get the most travel you can before the truck would slap axle on frame. If its still ride bad after this then its time for the free travel mod

Just cut it along the black line i show here and you will be good. Use top portion not lower cut portion

Hey tony, I just purchased your belltech 2"/3"4" kit and I'am still waiting for the order, I have two Questions, 1. are the rear springs still in back order ? 2. Im looking to lower the rear only 3", do I need to cut the bumpstops also?........ and do i use the spacers or don't use the spacers for the 3" rear drop?

Yup rear kit still on backorder. When they come in they will all be sent out. If you only want 3 inches just use the spacers and honestly yeah id cut the bumpstops.

Just in case anyone gets a case of the dumbass like I just did, you're supposed to use the longer piece that's left when you do this. I actually cut my bumpstops and started to put the little button piece in there and got pissed for a second. I blame it on the intensity at work lately. Not my finest 30 sec.

Off to see how it affects the ride.
