I think your mad not having bump stops..if you hit a decent bump youll destroy your suspension....they take the shock out when it goes to the limit of its movement...with out you will have steel on steel..not good.
Secondly its a WOF requirement for raaod going vehicles.
I believe you can get smaller bump stops, but if you do fit them you would need it to be certified to legally be on the road.

or the other thing you could do is use factroy bumpstops from another vehicle,

one of the legal loop holes

if you have huge bumstops,find a donor vehicle that has smaller ones,as long as you dont cut them down or anything you will be fine


Cheers
