    Default D2 Bumpstops

    What do you guy recommend for some bump stops preferably aftermarket as I'm looking at slightly bigger than stock.

    Thanks

    What's your intended use for moving to larger bumpstops?

    To limit axle travel. Naturally bigger tires and a slight lift.

    Have you considered using straps when you go wheeling? Generally regarded to be a bit better than relying on bumpstops.

    If you are going with 2" and 32s, I wouldnt worry about bumpstops or the above.

    he didn't ask your opinion on what to do. he asked for a type of bump stop.
    search on websites like poly performance or the like. there is nothing for a DII specifically. just get something longer than stock and adapt it to your truck.

    Bumpstops are for limiting compression. Straps are for limiting droop.

    Thanks.

    I did that. Found some blocks the are similar measurement and will fit on the small plate of the bumpstop but now my dilema is how to attach them. The D1's are easier to attach, but for the D2 if I drill a hole through the centre and put a nut on it, it will not fit back into original mounting without a lot of bending.

    I've seen some here on a couple Disco and was curios how some you guys mount them.

    Did you check with Lucky8. Justin is evaluating some prototype D2 bump stops as shown in the attached photo.
