    Always in line with the spindle bolt and make sure you have your kit aligned first before setting it to bump.

    Just have to make sure the bump is mounted right with the travel of the suspension or it will scrub on the strike pad and could rip the bump out

    so if you hit something big and mess up your alignment, you can potentially fuck up your truck if the bump stop misses the strike pad.

    At that point, the owner should have his alignment tack welded, correct?

    The alignment should be off the heims on the upper not on the cams on the lower at this point

    that's something i'm eventually going to do. solid mount the lowers, convert my upper arms to heims and then bump off the spindle bolt

    just another thing to add to the never ending "to do" list

    To much to list!
    Take the cams out and use weld washers to eliminate the cans.
