How much do you trim the bump stop? Do you trim the top or bottom?

Did not trim mine, however the bottom has a ‘rib’ that indexes in the Dust Shield (missing in your photo), so the top portion gets trimmed away. I would trim at the notch.

According to H&R, the Sport springs for our car (part # 29910-2 http://www.hrsprings.com/application...lts/4/95/1998/ ) require 0.75" trimming of the front bumpstops per their instructions:

As the previous poster mentioned, the rib at the bottom of the bumpstop captures the dust shield, so that portion should be retained. I trimmed in the "V" valley and discarded the top portion.

Totally makes sense that you can only trim the top since the bottom needs to capture the dust shield.
Thanks

I trimmed the bottom.
