Check this out, I pulled out my TF 2.75" front upper bump stop extensions while welding in my gussets. I compressed the suspension nearly all the way, in the pic I still have 1" of shock compression left! How can these be re aligned? It could be my AEV geometry brackets? Nothing is binding at full compression except this... Should I just put the extensions back in and get 3" longer shocks?

 

Looks like your sway bar links are still attached.

 

They are, but do you think that would cause the bumpstop and pad to malign?

 

What is your caster set at? (you profile shows brackets and adj upper arms?) Tilting the housing (lowering the pinion/raising the caster) causes the lower stops to tilt further and further back.

So, lowering the caster/raising the pinion would tilt the stops back upright. (again, depending on what the caster is set at now.) Or maybe adding lower arms and moving the whole housing forward?
