is my IFS messed up??

EXJAY · April 29, 2003

i just noticed that my front rubber bumpstops for the A-arms rest on the arms like they are compressed? is this normal? there isnt alot left of the stops but im thinking i can crank the t-bars a bit to help out after replacing the stops. also about how many turns of the adjuster bolts equal how many inches? what ya think??

The rubber bumpstops on my truck was about 1" from the arm before I cranked up the torsion bars. If they are resting on arm, have you noticed the ride being bouncy due to having no compression? I cranked mine 10 full turns and got about 1.75" of lift, maybe a little more. Hope this helps some. Chris

That just seemed like a loaded question is my IFS messed up... j/k

My 1500 front input jouncer sits on the pad.. so I would guess it to be okay..

Even with minor t-bar adjustments, my jouncer seems to rest on the pad too just like BDBWTE's does unless the truck is absolutley on level ground, and then it hovers just above them...
