Not a lot af shocks comes with internal bump stops. And if they do, they're not that good.

Internal bump stops are better than nothing. But still a bad excuse for real bump stops.
I know the ones I've just gotten are perhaps a bit overkill. I really wanted Fox hydraulic bump stops. But can't really find place to fit them anywhere. So I got these instead, which allow for a bit more travel, before bumpstopping. The internal ones are only a few mm's of rubber to prevent metal from hitting metal.
As you can see in the video, this works much better. But to fit something like this to the Jimny the entire front chassis suspension mounts have to be altered.

Bling?
No bling, just how it should be on a Jimny
