You've got to cycle your suspension without the springs installed to see what makes contact. Then you determine how much bump stop you need.

This is me failing to set proper bump stops on my front axle and smashing in my oil pan.

Also... general best practice for relocating spring perches is to just reuse the factory perch.

More pictures would help.

Yes, this has been wire wheeled and repainted.

How does that happen?

How does that happen?

My Dana 30 was trussed and kissed the oil pan. Here's the complete story including pulling the oil pan in a dirt parking lot next to Napa and beating the tick out of the engine.
