Has anyone ran into this? Front bumpstops touching.

thanks for the clarification! On my 99 Sierra I removed the front and rear bs all together when I bagged it...then never put them back on when i went back to static. I honestly never knew they were gone as the ride quality never seemed to show it.

Definitely. I will post before and after pics of the whole vehicle and pics of each step.

Thanks!!!

My denali sat on the front bs at stock height as well so nothing to worry about. And after dropping the front and trimming, it stills sits on the bs slightly

Before you cut them, there is a high likelihood you don't need to. The front should ride on the bumpstops, especially in a lowered vehicle. I learned this the hard way and ended up finding a nice pair of OEM bumpstops from a junkyard truck to replace mine that were cut too much. My truck was bottoming out like crazy.

Now it sits firmly on the bumpstops and I couldn't be happier with the ride.

I second that, if you cut them (at all) just make sure there is enough bumpstop for the control arm to still rest on that bs. We're saving you a major headache here...I was pretty pissed about this one

They're not bumpstops, gm calls them JOUNCE STOPS and yes they are supposed to ride on them, mine required a bit of trimming when I dropped it with keys so I chopped 1/2" off the top and it rides great.
