ASSISTANCE Suspension, Brakes & Wheels

I had my tokico springs and illumina’s installed today. For some reason they didn’t put the bumpstops in, none, zero. I provided them with some bump stops off a Koni Yellow set and when I noticed they didn’t install them they said they weren’t needed. I told them if the car bottoms out it’ll destroy something without the bumpstops. They said the aftermarket spring/shock will never bottom out.

Needless to say, I’ve always read you absolutely need bumpstops, although trimming may be required when going from OEM to aftermarket suspension. The reasons are obvious. Am I missing something here? They said I could come back and they would put them in if I wanted, and I’m thinking I want.

Please proffer your opinion. I think the chance of me bottoming out is slim, but it only takes once, and this is SoCal, land of culverts and canyons at intersections.

Thanks!

I had some people tell me the same thing, that I didn’t need them! I personally like to have them and when I changes out the suspension I installed mine!

you need them, go have them put back on

a bump stop is definitely needed. without one i would of bottomed out a couple times.

Definitely need them. I think not installing them voids the manufacturer’s warranty.
