Hello...here's my problem and i hope you guys can help me:

I have 93 extracab yota w/ sas, 5" total lift with 14" biltsein shocks and 5" shackles.
I waited 2 after the sas to some what brake the lift kit in then flexed it out.
It seems like my bump stop are limiting my flex, but w/o my bump stops...my shocks will bottom out. I know i can go to 12" shocks instead
but what about my bump stop limiting my flex. Here's how i flexed my truck...(yes it's locked w/ Detroits front and rear w/ Yukon 5.29's)
my drivers wheel climbed over s speaker box meade for 12" subs and my rear passenger climbed on one as well. I'm not having any problems w/ the rear. It's just the front. Just over that speaker box and my bump makes solid contact. Not a very good flex, if you ask me.\
Yes, i do want to avoid longer shackles do to top heavy.

SOMEBODY, PLEASE HELP.

yea man we need pics to tell whats going on,  flex it out and get pictures

you dont want the bump stops too high or the springs will go negative and fail in time,  you want them to be close to flat when the bumpstops touch

Your bumpstops should hit about the same time your springs flatten out.
You'll never take me alive

okay...here's a link to look at the pictures of my truck flexed out......
please look and give me your input. oh yeah, another issue i have with my bump stops is that they always bottom out when i drive off a
some what steep driveway or a speed bump.
