This is the pic I sent to ARB USA asking that question. They forwarded it to the head engineer at ARB Australia. He stated that you will not harm OME coils by fully compressing them, but did suggest that you should bumpstop to keep it from happening. I can't find the email now, but he added a bunch of numbers to prove that whatever metal they use is up to the task.

It appears you are running the HD coils up front and the SD coils in the back. I have HD (618 & 619) 2.5 OME all the way around. Are you running a steel bumper in the rear? If so, you'll see some sag. My HD coils don't sag much at all and I'm running steel everything (Gobi rack, PJ rear bumper with a 35 on it, skid plates, and LOD rockers...with that said, it looks fine.

It's funny you mentioned that because I was just on the northridge website and ran out to double check that I have the spring numbers right. Sure enough HDs in front and SDs in rear. Stock bumpers though front and back.
I guess that's what I get for buying used and not checking the stuff carefully. It didn't help that I had only had the Jeep for a couple weeks so I wasn't quite as versed in JKU parts and what to look for.
