Quick Lowering Questions

Im in the middle of installing my AGX shocks and Intrax Springs, i have a small problem, the old bump stops won't slide down the agx shocks, i could just dremel out the hole in the bump stop to give it more clearance...any problems with this?? also does the bump stop need to be cut? thanx

I think they will cover it when there is weight on it. When I jack up my car to change the oil it looks like that but when I let it down it matches right up. Its just b/c its not compressed. I think that is what you are talking about. Let me know if I helped at all.

Disregard this post, after looking at the stock shock i realized the bump stop is SUPPOSED to sit that high.
