Pat, Plenty of travel in the front, but not enough in the rear, I've cut
my stock bump stops back to about 1/2" and I only have about 2" of
travel. In my opinion you need at least 3 1\2 - 4". I don't know what it
had stock, I believe near there. So thats why they have the c-notch. But
as others have pointed out, if involved in a bad accident the old
insurance company might back out and the owner may be left holding the
bag. It ain't like me to worry about that sort of thing but I am for
some reason. I think I'm gona try some air bags, for 250 bucks I figure
its worth the shot. Sure does look cool though. Regards Bob
