    After taking my spill yesterday I got to thinking. I talked to Mr. Monkeyproof, and he said he simply corrected his janky bent radiator core support body line alignment problem with nothing more then just Baja Fenders, I am obviously upgrading my bumper here very shortly to a Bruteforce Hybrid, so no worries there about what to do with my stock bumper which is sitting high right now. I'm still somewhat wondering if the fenders would solve my high hood problems still though. Anyways.

    I am starting to wonder if some of the reason why I didn't handle the blow that well (suspension wise) was because of a lack of stopping power from my bump stops. I have wheelers super bumps in front, and while I have loved them and they have served their purpose very well, I am wondering if they are weaker then what I need them for.

    I have been looking into some air bumps for a while before I ended up going with the super bumpers. I have also been looking into adding a secondary shock on both sides, but I am wondering if thats too much. What do you think? Would air bumps be able to take the job of what a secondary shock could do?

    Bump. I'm looking to step into some air bumps soon and would like some of my questions to be answered :)
