Sorry I didn’t mean to hijack this discussion. The lower control arm back bolts are fine. I know because I replaced the bushings to the lower control arms just a little over a year ago. And I had the clunking issues then already. I’ve inspected the sway bar bushings and they seemed fine, but can’t really count them out yet.

Back to trimming the bump stop, my ride doesn’t feel like I’m not even bottoming out. And I’ve tested before and after I went with the Bilstein B8, and the ride is a lot comfortable now. With the stock strut I was bottoming out, and the bump stop was stock length also. So I don’t know if I should trim or not.
