I think the spacer and isolater combo is a more viable problem because anyone would notice the rear suspension not cycling at all with the bumpstops caught.
If I recall correctly, we put mine on backwards and switched them around because it's extremely noticeable when you connect the axle back up.... Lol

Still no pics??????
If it's traveling that far from normal DD, then their is a bigger issue than a simple BB lift....

My bumpstops were on backwards, and the passengers side kept geting hit by the bolt head of the track bar if memory serves me corret. Everytime I hit a bump, though I was bottoming out. Turned them around and all is well.
