Did I write to remove them? NO From experience with many different cars, if you keep stock shocks/struts with bump stops and you lower then you cut the same amount on the bump stop that you lowered it. No they don't mention in the instructions but don't be surprised by the harsh ride on the rear. It's common sense.
