YOOT Member 1,201 Member For: 21y 10m 15d Location: Birkdale Posted 02/11/05 08:09 AM Share Posted 02/11/05 08:09 AM that's definetly on the bump stops mate, with the weight you had in the back you wouldn't have felt the difference. The bump stops are huge trianguler things so they are soft to start with then harden up. With that much wieght it would have easily squashed the bump stops without stopping the uptravel hard and fast.My utes lowered the same as every other superlow ute, and there is only 10-20mm of up travel to the tip of the bump stop and I hit them on big bumps regularly, especially at 100kmh, and its hits hard when its empty!Nice effort all the same!
