I have a link pin chassis for my Manx project. Should I cut off the bump stops from the beam? What are the pros and cons?

If you are looking to increase wheel travel or lift by also installing adjusters or cutting and rotating the center anchors, yes. Unless you did, your wheel travel and the vertical lift of the suspension would be unchanged

If you are not making any other modifications to increase lift/wheel travel, there is no reason to or benefit from removing them

Cool. It’s going to be stock height so I’ll leave them there. Thank you.
