Hard Launch ???
 
Is anybody having issues with the axle hitting the bump stops on hard launches. Truck has 2/4 drop and the bump stops are shaved for clearance at normal height over 2 inches of space. Should I just C notch ??

I put aftermarket bumps on, then did a thicker overload leaf to stop mine

My bump stops were like 3/4" thick and was still having issues hitting the frame on bumps. I did the c notch and still haven't hit the frame. Its a must have if your lowered IMO

I did fail to mention I run long bars - oops - that's could help

Wow that took awhile. Thanks I ordered a c notch will put that in soon. How are those assassin bars better than cal tracs ??

More adjustability in my opinion. They both work.. Don't have to pull the leaf spring out of the front hanger when installing them.
