If you mount the bump stop upside down so that it attaches to the shock tower you only have a 2" gap, that works out to 3-1/4" wheel travel. If you mount it to the arm on inside of the spring plates the gap is 3" and the wheel travel is 4" to 4-1/4". I guess the ultimate bump stop location will be decided by wheel travel. What is stock wheel travel???

OK, the distance between the bump stop and the shock tower is approximately 4-3/4" with stock suspension. I will remove my bushings from the porsche arms and re-install them in the VW ones and take more acurate measurements.

are you taking those measurements with the spring plate on the lower stop? just curious. also a shorter bump stop should work as long as it still have a safe buffering. not sure what that is, but remember reading this somewhere, so probably worth investigating.
