IWSTI Addict since: Apr 2009 | I installed RCE springs which came with the shorter bump stops. You might want to call your swift rep. Do the install instructions say anything about cutting them down? It can be done...I've done it on an old BMW without an issue. Cut them from the bottom if you do decide to do it. What's the drop on your springs? |

IWSTI Addict since: Dec 2008 | inverted struts. once the spring is off, undo the nut on the bottom of the strut and the piston assembly thingie will slide out. the bumpstop is in there just need to do some extra work! |
