if you have the stock axles drill a hole down the middle and bolt them to the bottom of the spring mount threw the spring pocket.

Like he said, bump-stops. I tried siliconing them in place but due to having such a rusty surface they broke off shortly after. I ended up buying some nuts and bolts and sandblasted the center of the coil spring perch. Then I welded a nut in the center, drilled holes in the pucks and just bolted them down.

There is enough material there the drill and tap if you're not looking for a welding project. I've got access to a lathe so I just made up a set from some high impact PVC and counter bored the center for my hexagonal socket head bolt. Sorta difficult to photograph. I've got extended uppers so I didn't need as much height as those pictured above. I love the question, "how do I need these?"
