No not notching the frame, i dont want the springs to go anymore negative than they are...I would rather play it safe and not run into issues with the springs busting. Im bumping off the top of the spring plate which is why the bumpstop is mounted so high on the frame.

Yeah! That's pretty much what i was leaning towards (surface detail) without trying to derail the thread too bad ha ha. Somebody took one in our neighborhood this week and it was HUUUGE and colorful but i don't think it had near the same clarity... It was in our local paper

How much are your springs going into negative arch with this set up?

At full bump I'm going 2" negative which is where I was with the factory bump and a 1" spacer. I figure the factory rubber bump compresses at least half an inch...

Testing today went amazing! Really happy with the rear suspension. Im about ready to mount the 2.5 bypasses up front now. Video comming soon...Got some go pro footage as well as outside footage at the outlet center jump behind kfc! Ive never really jumped the bronco before and was impressed with how level it flew and the smooth landing...Broncos kick ass!
