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.

some mq/mk patrols have over ride springs these have there own bump stops n are only about 500mm long but there is a bumpstop that it above the axle tube this is the main bump stop

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

this shows both the leaf bumpstop and the axle bumpstop

this is the lone bumpstop

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...
