Removing bump stop brackets

[Bigdawg]

OK guys, I installed the C2C lowering kit. I have some bottoming out issues. I have removed my bump stops and now want to remove the bump stop brackets.
If I install the low profile bump stops do I have to drill a new mounting hole or is there an existing hole I can use or do I mount the bump stop in a different location?

gonna have to drill a hole for the bumps stops IIRC.......or, just rivet a thin sheet of rubber to the frame.

What size blocks are you running? If 2", what do you do that is making you bottom out so much without bump stops? Bad roads? Carrying Loads?

Im running the c2c up front and 2 inchers in the back and I never bottom out? :hmmmm2: . Could be that I only have about 400 miles on the kit and baby my truck but ive hit some hard bumps by accident with no problems

mine bottoms out like crazy on 2" so did my last truck. even body roll in a corner will do it for me with no load.

Same here. 2" blocks in the back, I bottom out.

I hardly ever bottom out and I have 2" blocks installed. I did cut down the stock bump stop to about 1/2" tall though.

what did you use?
I heard their is metal half way through them, is that true?

I just used a hacksaw. I didn't have any metal in mine.:dontknow:

I bottom out bad just going ovver speed bumps at 15mph. Ive towed some pretty big loads though with the biggest being about 6000lbs so maybe my springs are worn out.

flip the bump stop over, and you can see the cup that the rubber is attatched to goes into the stop.
