How many of y'all don't have rear bumpstops?

I have 1 rear bump stop. The other 1 is MIA. The 1 I do have is bent at a funky angle. I have a 4" bracket lift & am wondering if I need to replace the rear bump stops. If so, is there an aftermarket brand that goes somewhere outside the coil, like from axle to frame?

I too only have one. No idea when and where it fell off. I just noticed it gone a couple weeks ago.

My 87 has them, but are MIA on my 92.

But bumpstops are a good thing to have. They keep the spring from going too far negative and bending.

I cut mine down so they're low-profile now. I've had no issues running them like that with the stock springs + 2" AAL. I've also got some that aren't cut down(part of my spare rear axle). Been holding onto them just in case I ever change my mind(not very likely), or need to replace one(even less likely).

This is the best pic I could find(shows the passenger side).
