I'm replacing the worn out dampers and I picked up a set of KYB SB124 rear bump stops. New stock bump stops for the rear are only available as a set with the Motorcraft struts. The problem is that although KYB states this is the correct application for the ST, the bump stop is 1/2" greater in length than stock (stock: 4-3/4" / kyb: 5-1/4"). Considering this reduces strut travel by the same amount, is it better to reuse the old stock bump stops? Wondering if anyone else has run into this issue.
