There is absolutely nothing wrong with mounting the bumps like you did.
The people who say it has to be mounted on top of the leafs don’t know what they are taking about.

More than one way to skin a cat . On the frame or on the leaf if it works that's all that matters . The problem on his set up was the long u bolts. They should have been cut down .

this information is clearly listed on my website. It's as simple as choosing the the year vehicle you own and all my products for that vehicle will come up with a description.

It's not a derail in the least. Flip kits simply replace your square shaped U-bolts that are on your truck now. The square U-bolt threads face downward toward the dirt. They have potential to get hung up on a rock.
With U-bolt flip kit you receive 4 new U shaped U-bolts and a flip plate. This allows for the threads of the Ubolts fo face upward. It clears up under axle clearance.

It's simply flipping the orientation of your Stock U-bolts and flipping them to face upward.

Those U bolts are too long. Chop off the excess thread down close to the top of the nuts so that they're shorter than the height of the bump stop and things will work much better.

been eyeing the @RelentlessFab u-bolt flip kit for a while. a buddy of mine ended up using OEM GM bump stops mounted up top.

No it really doesn't matter at all if you mount the Bump Stops to the frame or the leaves.

Don't listen to that garbage! Just trim the excess thread on the bolts.
Done
