bump stops supporting bumper
put a heavy ass bumper on recently and to compensate for the weight I ordered larger coils for the front, but I just noticed that the bump stops are now supporting the weight in the front. how bad is this and how urgent is it that i install the new coils

There was a post/pic a few days ago - something like 3 inches of coil lift with 5 inches of extended bumpstops. And he was wondering why the post lift ride was so harsh. Go figure...

Get a TJ front spring and it will fix your problem. Usually you can pick these up for less than $50, so you will still be under the cost of any aftermarket spring.
