Teraflex Redesigned their 2.5 BB Rear Bumpstops.! How do they install
Well I just got my Teraflex 2.5 BB and noticed the rear bump-stops are different from the Project JK TeraFlex 2.5 BB Write up http://project-jk.com/images/writeup...b/DSC06378.jpg.
The new ones are longer and have a slant. I'm Wondering which side the slant should point to... front or back? Pix of the new Bump-stop below...

I expect it is to account for the arc'd travel of the rear axle as the springs compress--to ensure the factory top bump stops make clean contact with the bottom. Either that or the designer was bored and just wanted to add some curvy parts 
Seriously though...the track bar bolt on the p-side rear will smack the bump stop if you install the angle to the rear--not good (lesson learned from experience.) The bump stop is pretty solid though...my track bar only left a small mark in mine
(the shop installed it backward...not me--I fixed it when I got home.)
