Needs Bumpstops bad

On the daystar bumpstop bolted in the bottom.

Might shorten it up a bit, but this was maybe not complete flex since the factory stops are fairly soft and should give some.
I hate to advocate weird chemicals, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone...but
they've always worked for me.

Followed a 2 Track on State land that would have kept going but there was a popple tree blocking off the rest of the 2 track... Someone had tried to cut it but to no avail. It took me about 15 minutes to turn around in that spot....
