Picked up a 2000 z71 obs tahoe knowingly with broken leafs (2 of the four, first below the main and the one below that with the clamps). I'm pretty sure it happened due to hyper flexing as the bump stops are absent.
The cheapest replacements I can find are Dorman ones on Amazon for 39 dollars each...yikes! I have bumpstops for an 04 sierra I'm considering subbing in if they are close. They are nearly equal on diameter, the way they mount and shape. I can't find accurate dimensions on length hense the question. I was hoping someone could give me an idea of an acceptable gap between the stop and the axle tube so I can determine of using these 04 stops as a substitute is OK or asking for more broken springs.
Thanks for your input!
