Anyone know how close the stock front suspension is to the bump stops on an NB? I can't tell on mine because the shocks have dust covers.

If it's a 2001-05, it's a trick question because the stock ones have fallen apart by now :)

Oddly, I don't have this bit of info because I rarely deal with stock springs.

In reply to Keith Tanner :

How about fora 1999? Or even with lowering springs?

 It isn't much,  but from memory, on a car that's at 12" hub to fender method with a 36mm bump stop it's around a half inch give or take, and stock ride height is around 13.5" or so (front, rear isn't that different spacing wise).  And I think stock bumpstop is 54mm. 

Keith, what's the spacing with FM springs/bumptops?

Don't have any cars here to check on, unfortunately.
