Daystar extended bump stops cost me $65 and I still needed to have jimmy fab up some plates so they would work. $100 for the truss and stock bump stops and your good for less headache I think. Plus you strengthen your 8.25. Otherwise go the same route. Jimmy did some nice work can't wait to put them in.

hate to break it to you but that truss ain't gonna do much due to the design and it being so thin. And as an FYI to weld it you need to deal with preheating the cast carrier. If you're gonna truss an axle may as well do a better one than that
