Anyone running coilovers in the ft and have no bump stops at the top of the strut. The car i just bought has no rubber bump stop at the top of the strut. Do I need them? It doesn't seem like there would be enough room to fit them in there.

I have kyb's on my stang and converted them to coil over and no you will not have bump stops on the strut. With the coil over setup your strut won't compress in enough to hit where the stop would usually be on a stock setup, or at least that is the way mine is. So don't worry about it.
