That is taken from the front of the drivers side. All of them are worn down though, front and back. I do have a leveling kit, but I'd be willing to bet a lot of people without the spacers are having the same issue.

Yeah, lifting the front with spacers really adds to the problem though. My 2 inch AS spacers are chewing into it much more than stock.

Again, is this going to cause any huge problems?

24000 miles and my bumpstops are fine...maybe it does have something to do with the lift on some of your trucks.

Just checked mine. 12000 miles, about 6000 miles with a 2" Auto Spring that has been removed. Still look like new. I make it a point to not turn the wheels to full lock unless necessary.
