I am going to work on installing my front air bags and I wanted to create the cups and brackets my self since they look pretty forward but knowing that the Stock Lower control arms have a groove in them where the original springs sat and the bottom cups for the bags will sit in the same area. I am wondering if the cups that people purchase are flat or have a groove/slanted edge so they are able to fit in the control arms.?

Also is it best to Weld them in?
