I have a set of 38x15.50 boggers that have been cut, but I'm thinking I won't really have the power for those.....

Nope if that is the case one tire would not move and the other will go backwards

with the bump stops, should they actually raise my hitch height? or sit at stock level?

No sir, I did not.

If you an SAFELY do it, raise the rear of the truck by the frame and put stops in it there. This lets the rear springs unload and let the axle shift down. That means more hitch height.

If you put them on when the truck is sitting level, it will not go down any further.

The whole idea is to put a stop (usually a huge bolt. Nut[s] are welded to a plate. The plate is bolted to the frame.) between the axle and frame. Basically making it a rigid rear end without the springs helping. 100% of the weight is on the axle.

Make sense???
