Default Rear suspsension? bumpstop necessary?

Redoing the rear suspension with H&R sport kit and Bilstein TC's. Do i need a bump stop with this setup? The originals are completely disintegrated and i want to finish up today and not wait to go to the dealer. I can always add them later right?

Most of the bump stops on these cars fell off long ago and the pieces are rattling around in the bottom of the spring. I tend to go overboard on repairs so I have replaced mine as I see they have fallen out but I had no problems when they were not in place even with worn out shocks and stock springs.

You should be just fine without them.

Sweedishautoparts com sells them as does FCPGroton. You can Google it and check prices.
