Too much and you can have problems. I cranked mine to where the jounce bumpers were just off of the A-arm after settling. That was a little while back and they have settled to where they are just touching now.

I seem to recall a number of .2" per turn. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.

They started renaming bumpstops to jounce Bumpers and engineering them differently because they were no longer being used simply as a cushion between the frame and suspension. In the platform the H2 shares, those things are actually considered part of the suspension and if your Z height is correct but you are sitting down on the jounce bumpers, it's OK.

They're FAINCY bump stops.
