I'm putting on H&R springs this weekend and I need to know by how much should I cut the bump stop? The documentation that comes with the springs doesn't say anything for the Max, but I know most here have had them cut. Thanks.

 

Someone has got to remember how much they cut the bump stop. Could you please tell me what is a recommended cut for the H&R springs.

 

Why would you need to cut the bumpstops on H&R's? They don't give it that much of a drop. You only need to trim the bump stops if you bottom out easily. Otherwise leave it. I have less then a 2 finger gap in my fender and I didn't even trim my bumpstops.

 

I suggest you put them on and see how they look before you cut the bumpstops. That way you can determine which to cut more, how low to cut it...etc.

 

i wouldnt cut more than 15mm ive got KYBs and Eibachs and didnt cut any off the bump stop.... and i havent bottomed yet

BTW I live in Louisiana we have crappy roads!!!

 

If your 5th gen bump stops are similar to the 4th gens. There are 3 rings, cut the lowest ring off or 1/3 of the bump stop. If your going with aftermarket struts, you can probably cut the bump stop in 1/2. If you compair the KYB bump stops to Nissan OEM equipment, they are about 1/2 the size.
