would I have any negative effects to taking off the bumpstops on the front of my '79 4x4? They are really worn out and smashed, and I already removed the swaybar, because I want more flex.
Thanks

Ive been running no bumpstops on the front of my truck for 5 years now. I pulled em off to get a little more wheel travel and havent noticed any negetive effects. Just be carefull when you jump your truck, with no bump stop there it makes a realy bad sound and will knock fillings loose... :lol:
