SSL arent on the bump-stops at all... my ute has SSL all round and the rear bumps are still about 1.5' off the diff. I havent cut them down, nor have I hit them yet... and its copped a fair hiding on the ruff stuff!! :spoton:

A ute has leaf springs still right?

Well these guys are talking about a Sedan. SSL's will put you on your bump stops.

SL's should be fine.

Yup, had to have a bit cut off my bump stops when I had SSLs fitted at the rear. :spoton:

Your ute will have leafs at the back so it will be different to the sedans, I just had a look at my ssl and yes they're sitting on the bump stops, im just wondering if I should trim them or just leave it as is??

Id trim them swanga. You could be in trouble if you hit a bump at speed when your turning or have low fuel. Try and get feedback from others with the SSL and see what they think (im not lowered so my opinion is not really valid for a T).

Jack up 1 side of the car at a time (stick a car stand under the car for safety aswell)

Grab a stanley knife and slide under one corner at a time and removed the first groove (its about 1.5cm - 2cm).

The ride isnt as hard in the rear and ive found the rear end doesnt feel like its got a locked diff, when taking off turning a corner like it did with the car sitting on the bump stops. (Because there is a gap now it allows the car to 'roll' a little and apply enough pressure on the correct wheel.)
