We did the bumps the same way...!!!!!!!!!!!!
A 1/4" backer plate welded to the OEM bumpcup?
It was spot on for my truck travel wise...but how much lift do yuo have?
They rock...can't even feel them.

WOW i'll be inquiring about those. Ive said air bumps were the future for the last 5 years or so.
PT, you think the 3" is necessary if I want to get 6' of air like that guy on the video? I figured with that limited travel the bigger the better.
Did you ever look at the air bag setup for towing. I think I remember Don doing that for Wiggs (stole my idea). Cant stay ahead of the game if you gotta save up to buy unlike DAVID!
What ball park can I look at needing for the front end? If you dont mind me asking. With the trailing arms and all?
CD, Im gonna do a stainless tube chassis (with foam padding, too bight) so if the bypass shocks will do it all im game. May have to buy one shock at a time though $$$$$$.

I have NO IDEA if you solved the problem, but what we did was Don made a special bracket to put the stock helper springs on so I can tow heavy and the helper springs don't affect ride quality until the loads get heavy!
