On our coil over shocks, we limit bump (compression) travel with bump stops on the shock shaft. These stops are not solid, and allow an increasing rate of resistance as they rise against the shock body. They are available in different rates. To set the bump stop height, we place "packers" (NASCAR talk, sorry!) between the bottom of the shaft and the bump stop. A packer is a round piece of hard plastic with a slot in it which allows the packer to be easily slid on to the shaft (so you don't have to undo the shock shaft eylet to make height changes). Packers are available in different thicknesses, and can be stacked on each other. We limit droop (rebound) travel by using the bump stops (attached to the frame) from a pair of traction bars under the axle tubes and adjust them by shimming to the correct height. Hope this helps. vic
