You can cut some off and put a zip tie on the strut to see if the bump stop is indeed hitting the vehicle. The ziptie will stay at the highest compression of the strut. I don't think that you should get bump steer just by them raising your steering rack its usally associated with being lowered on springs as coilover systems are already tuned to prevent it.
Wrong.

Rusty. Should I upgrade to SPL outer tie rods to reduce bump steer or will it be over kill to use those?
