HELL no it shouldent be sitting on the bump stop.

That also reminds me? why do some MQ/MK only have about 3-4 leafs, while mine has 8 on each leaf in the rear and 6 at the front?

because some have parabolic leaf springs and some dont. Parabolic leafs are all the same length eye to eye. So there is only need for a few leafs.

nastyroll thats wot i got, rear of leaf sits on a bumbstop tho there is still a main one directly over the axle. bad pics i know, but its only off my phone


Image
this shows both the leaf bumpstop and the axle bumpstop

Image
this is the lone bumpstop

Image
this shows a piece of metal that has been bolted to chassie where the leaf rises up to, same on other side and same on a mates mq, so i presume its stock...
