WTB extended bump stops???

Hi all! I've recently purchased an 07 H3 Base & leveled it with the torsion bars and now would like to get a set of extended bump stops for the front. I've checked Trail Duty, as was suggested in other forum posts, but there wasn't anything listed under that section. I've e-mailed the site for assistance last week and have yet to get a reply. Anyone know of where and/or exactly what the specs are to get some that will fit as I can't find them anywhere online that specifically states that they will fit an 07 H3 Base? (and yes, I put new Bilstein 5100's on the front for the extended travel).....

Have they dried up and are no longer available anywhere?


Thanks in advance!

For what I read not too long gone ago some people are having a hard time getting them...some have ordered them from trail duty and have been waiting for them for like 2-4-6 months they have contact trail duty and get the same answer they are gonna have them in Stock soon that they are waiting on them...some have cancel their orders and some still waiting ur best bet would be to go oem but a 1" rubber Puckett drill a hole thru both of them and run a bolt and bolted to your bumps stop mount.

Well, if it makes you feel better the extended bump stops are a trade off. While they do reduce nose dive a bit, they are not nearly as good at dampening everyday bumps as the OEM ones. They also wear out more quickly.

I had the extended ones for a few years and went back to OEM.

I agree with Alrock--I ran them for awhile and almost got to watch my 3 puke them out. Luckily I was there to pick it up off the ground. I went home and reinstalled the factory stuff.
I've still got the Trail Duty ones if you want to rodeo, but I can't advise them......

I've run over 180,000 miles leveled with the factory bumpstops. I've never felt there was a real need to upgrade. The dive isn't significant, at least to me.

I feel it makes a better ride for me with the OEM's at their regular length, the road I drive on for my commute isn't near as smooth as it out to be, and I get less jarring as I drive along with having some space between the bump stops and the arms. When I had it at stock height it was less than comfortable. Still isn't, but not so much.
