If you droop one side all the way...is the other end ON the bumpstop?

I've seen the stuffed side TIRE hit the frame rail, hindering further droop in some cases....but I haven't seen the stuffed stop hinder it.

My leaf pack is stiff though, so maybe a flexier pack would be different...but, when I did stuff tests, under normal articulation, the stop had maybe 4" of travel left...under "landing" conditions, it can come closer, but, I have not measured that.

The way I always test variables like that out, is to remove the part in question, and see what difference it makes.

So, for example on the the shocks, I checked the droop with them on, then took the shock's off the lower mount, and drooped again...to see how far it went with NO shock holding it back, etc...

You could try that with the stops...do a stuff/droop, measure the travel, check the BS clearance...if it's touching, take it off, and do it again...if there's more travel...it was limiting, etc.

If its not touching...well, its not limiting...etc.
