Ok I understand the shock thing that why I will be going with a bell tech lowering strut. The bump stop would only be there for extra security if I hit a real bad dip or pot hole. Now as far as the carrier bearing goes you are saying that it needs the relocation kit for the two piece drive shaft which my truck has the two piece drive shaft. I am getting mixed info from bell tech" tech line they say tranny spacer and the proper angle is built into the flip kit. I told them I have the two piece drive shaft ???????????? I have been tiold that the 285 45 22 will be ok and others say no ?????? Have you expienced either of these mods on you truck or friends trucks what do they say or what did you guys do.

trans spacer is for 1pc drive shafts, the carrier bearing relocation is for 2pc driveshafts
there's a hand full of guys running 305-40-22 without issues. Or course it depends on the backspacing and offset of your wheels, but i think a 45 series tire on a 22 might be too much, but i dont know for sure on that one.
Bump stops can only do so much, getting a heavy duty one that "engages" sooner will just make for a rougher ride. You need to get a high quality shock if you want to control the movement of the truck, or possibly look at air assist kits as well
