jounce bumper importance?
How important are jounce bumpers to a periodically driven, hotchkis lowered, 17.5x9 (WS6) wheels w/ 275/45/17 tire car? I am in the process of de-winterizing my car and realized that mice chewed these bumpers in half this past winter? I have not found any indication that they have done any other damage, probably because I put mouse poison in the garage before they could do further more. I really wanted to take the 'bird out this weekend if the weather is good. I don't plan on beating on it. Under normal circumstances, how close is the axle/chassis to hitting them? Should this be a concern?

I had stock suspension and were missing both of them. It would hit whenever there was more than 2 people in the car, any pot holes, or even sharp turns. It was a terrible sound that sounded like a loud thump. You can get them cheap from the normal gm sites, part number is on shoebox's website

x3 i broke my rear konis when my original bumpstops crumbled away. leaked oil but koni sent me new ones $220 for both. good rebuild policy
i ran the SLP jounce things but took em off because the stock white pyramid shaped rear bump stops work better w/o the spacers, 315s
