TeraFlex

I'm running these on mine. They can really help smooth things when you hit dips/bumps at speed or when you have alot of weight in the JK.

nobody is running bump stops?

most lift kits come with bumpstop extensions as they are needed to help prevent the over compression of your coils. does the rk kit not come with bump stop extensions? if not, a bump stop extension is a bump stop extension and you have lots of options available to you. the only thing i would recommend is that for the front, you get the kind that bolts up to your axle and not extend from the factory bump stop location.

X2. You'll still need extensions up front. Doesn't take that long to install if you don't count the time waiting for paint to dry.

I think he's talking about the actual bump stop. Daystar EVS's go on the shock piston rod.

Curious as to why you would recomend this, I have seen many of each type with very few problems with either? Is one more prone to breakage/failure than the other??

Daystar does make extended EVS bumpstops that go in the stock location as well, they also have a progressive evs based can out now too.

I do still some minor rubbing in front and rear but its not anything i am worried about. I plan on getting rid of the stock flares some day soon.

I'm running Old Man Emu bump stops front and rear.
Typical OME quality and fit, no problems. Tires stuff but don't rub.
