One thing to keep in mind with Hockey pucks?
They have absolutely no compliance to them what so ever.
They are totally rigid, no springiness at all. Unlike a factory Bump stop that has some "compression" to them.

Gottcha.
I now have a good mental picture.

The heads off of rubber mallets also work well, just cut to lenght with a hack saw and drill a hole through the middle and attach to the spring perch with a 3/8" bolt and nut. $1.99 ea. at the thrift stores.

Tony, that might be fine for people with spacers, but the HD springs etc will bottom out before hitting the axle. Do you have extended shocks? They might bottom out before they hit the spacer even, that may cause some wear. I got daystar pucks with my franky and actually used 2 hockey pucks instead. Didnt want any blown shocks what so ever. The daystar bumps are slightly thicker then a hockey puck, and 2 bucks are about 1/2 inch higher. They work great for stuffing tires once the sway bar is removed.
