Default Bump stop ideas and solutions sought

Front bump stops are getting beat on my 2006 H3. The torsion bars are turned up on my rig. Looking for some different ideas and successful solutions to what others have come up with for repairs or replacements.

Also how involved is the process to repair or replace you have discoverd.

Thanks!

Replacing the front bump stops is about a 15 minute job. Google it, there are vids out there. Use a screw driver and pry out the old. Wipe the cup clean of any crud or remaining chunks of old bump stops. Put some liquid soap on the new ones and pop into place. Yo do not need to remove the tire & wheel.

I've got the Trail Duty (click for link) extended bump stops with my keys cranked quite a bit.

Cool

Fronts - 15783030 x 2
Rears - 15295277 x 2

I just ordered mine. They look in pretty sorry shape after 132,000 miles. I hope the rears are as easy to change as the fronts.

Having access to a lift makes the whole job a 5 minute thing

I did my rears a few weeks ago; Didn't have to jack up the truck, nor was any lubricant necessary. Just slid under the truck with a piece of cardboard. Was a very simple job. Need to do the fronts soon.
