How much did you cut off? and did you check any of the wheel travel clearances? After lowering have that short of bump travel seems crazy small.

I agree, I never thought it would be that little bit of clearance.

Are you talking about the FRPP bumpers?

Yes, sorry. That post was very vague.

Have you had a chance to see how much the stops are hitting the frame?
