Default Extended bumpstops

I raised my front end by turning the torsion bar nut and my front end is now about 24.25 inches high from the center of the wheel. Based on other posts I've read, I'm looking into getting extended bumpstops from Trailduty.com. There are 2 sizes, 1/2 inch and 1 inch. I'm not sure which size to get, so I wanted to know if anyone raised their front end over to over 24 inches and also got the new bumpstops and which size they went with? I've seen some posts where they raised the front to around 23 inches and got the 1/2 inch size so I was thinking I'd get the 1 inch??? Any info or results would be great. Thanks!

I am running about the same height as you in the front and I got the 1/2" extensions. I believe you will find that is the correct length for that height.

I am using the 1/2" bump stops. My H3 front fender measures at 24"

Get the 1/2.. I went with what Phil said, 1 inch.. They were a bit much.. They popped out within 10 minutes of hitting the first trail.. I'm sitting at 24.25 and they actually sat me on up to 25 when installed..

Put the 1/2 in and they sat perfect.. Theysit just a shade above the A-arm.. Not even room to slide a dime in without sticking..

Thanks! I thought I could fit a 1 inch extender but I measured again and I think it would cause problems like Crash had. Can't wait to put them in.

Thumbs down Distance Between Extended Bump Stop and where it hits?

How much space should be between the Bump Stop and where it hits?

I have mine raised approx 24 1/4"

1/2" Extended Bump Stops sit approx. 1/4" - 3/8" above the a-arms where they hit.

(They hit at an angle so that measurement is from the closest corner of the bump stop to where it hits.)
