Front strut bump stop question

Just rebuilt suspension on the front end of my 1983 LE. Ball joints, C/A bushings, inner/Outer tie rods, sway bar poly link bushings, radius arm bushings(poly) up front. Have new strut (OEM style) plates coming. Will be replacing the strut bellows and bump stop. Can I cut the new bump stop to lower alittle bit? I have tokico blues - front/back RB springs. Any thoughts on cutting bump stops up front?


A set of ARE enkie 92 knock offs from a parted out mariah wide body. On my 83 LE. RB springs, Tociko blues, and 205/50 nitto neo gens. Love me some meshies!

You don't really need to because the springs haven't been shortened enough to matter.
