The drop was installed by the previous owner. And the springs are definitely old and tired.

The thing that bothers me is regardless of what spring, if it ever hits hard enough to reach the bump stop it is going the interfere.

Dang man! You need to slow down! Just kidding. I’ve driven mine over 3000 miles since doing the suspension and getting it on the road and I’ve never even felt like I was close to hitting the bump stops up front.
