I'm having the new version of Frankenlift problem where the ball joint makes contact with the spring. I've read a couple of threads about people fashioning a bumpstop extension (which I plan to do as well).

I noticed on my front springs that the bumpstop is actually turned to the rear of the jeep so that only the very corner of the bump stop makes contact. Is there a way to rotate that back out so that the bumpstop is directly facing the brake rotor?

Also, in one of the afore mentioned threads someone mentioned that All J's might have bumpstop extensions they can send to you. Does anyone know if this is true? Otherwise I was going to hack up a rubber mallet to make the extended bumpstop.

Thanks in advance for any info!

It's a jeep thing, my levels of perception are sufficient to ascertain your implication

Callup All J and talk to them about it. They do have a bumpstop that can be added to the spacer or at least I think that is the current fix. Best bet is to call them or email them about it.

Thanks everyone,

I'm going to try twisting the spring while I've got an email off the All Js.

Appreciate the help!
