Yes they will.I replaced the angled zerks with the shorter strait ones.It was pretty aparent where the UBJ was touching my SkyJacker bumpstops(from the indentations),I just took my dremal and a engraving bit and made a nice hole in my bumpstops where the zerk hit.Now when my UBJ's hit the bumpstops the zerk goes in the little hole I made in the bumpstops and won't break them off.

EDIT---pics added
Before modding the bumpstop.

I am replacing the front procomp 3" with the Daystar 2.5 spacer, ome 927, rsx17505, al's arm, moog lower joint..... and instead of lock nuts on the clevis, 2 of rusty's spacers on the top of each strut! what do you think?

Dont think you can and I would not want to put two of the strut plates on top!

If you add one top strut plate it will give you more than a half inch

I have the rusty's 1/2" spacer on top of my strut plate and you will never get another one in there! Plus i have a 3 ring clevis and OME mediums up front.That amount of lift makes me seriously need a set of al's UCA's!
And you could drill out that hole in the bumpstop with a 1/2"+ drill bit if you don't have a dremel tool(one less thing you would have to buy but a dremel will work great if you have one).


* Nice to see someone else here from western canada!
