Is this right?

[Eischman]

So After installing a Teraflex 2.5 spacer lift on a 2021 Rubicon I noticed how close the bump stops are to touching and started wondering if I should not have installed the bump stop spacer along with the Falcon Jounce bumpers?
Nowhere in the instructions did it say NOT to!
Is this right, it sure doesn’t look right to me at least.

Definitely not right. The bump stop is there to stop your tire from getting into your fender. You’ll have no articulation with the way it is set now.

That’s what I thought, why in the hell would they not had said anything in the instructions. Well, I guess I can cut 2” off with a hacksaw blade, because I’m sure as hell ain’t going to take it all apart again ?

Not surprised

Right? Why would you have a “NOTE” before you continue to read the Falcon instructions and then never tell you to not use the spacer!
Well anyway, I think that now I know the front end and I’m not installing new track bars and steering stabilizers and I know what to disconnect unlike the first time it should not take more than two hours to correct it, I’m just debating which one goes, the spacer, or put the stock bump stop back on?

My $.02. Remove the TF bump and put back your stock one.

I would get rid of the teraflex bump spacer.

I used these. You can get them in and out without removing springs. Just need to flex the spring a little to get it in between the coils.

If those soft stops compact alot it may be to design. The bump stops seem rather tall for a 2.5 inch lift. I don’t think you would even need new bump stops with a spacer lift.

I stretched the springs and pulled out the Falcon and reinstalled the stock one, it was the easiest to do without taking springs completely off, took about an hour.
