    What are you guys using for extended bumpstops?

    I've read to use a lift block on the topside of the leaf. What size block?

    If you gerry rigged yours, post a pick so I can get an idea.

    Gonna throw my shocks on, but wanna make sure I have all the parts for the bumpstops as well.

    I had some 1/4" flat steel laying around and cut 4 (per side) 2.5" long plates to put under the bump stop (2 on each side of the leaf bolt)! Kind of ghetto but raised the bumps 1/2" and also have superbumps so they compress to stock height but have 1.5" of softer compression before they bottom out! I think AP's u bolt flip plate is 1/4-1/2" thick and could be used as well!

    I guess I could remove my overload leaf, shorten it up a bit and throw it under the bumpstop plate.
