I looked at my repair manual and the bump stop has like 4 bumps on it, how many do I cut off?

Ya, there are an even 4. Cut right in the middle of the first 2 and the last 2.

Cutting the bump stops won't lower your ride at all. The reason you're cutting the stops is because you're shortening the travel of the strut and if you have the entire bump stop intact, there's a good chance you'll hit it when you go over a bump. By cutting it, you're giving yourself more travel on the strut, that's all.

Hope it helps

G2 Racer: Did you get the integra shocks installed into your hatch? Were you able to pull it off easily? I'm thinking about getting integra shocks for my '92 hatch as a cheaper alternative to aftermarket shocks to use with aftermarket springs... how do you feel about the ride/damping of the shocks? What year integra did you get them from?

THANKS

Dirty D: I haven't had a chance to get my new shocks yet. I'm trying to decided on building up my current set up or getting ITR 5 Lug.
