where exactly are the bump stops? I have DFs and I keep hearing about these, are they something that I should be concerned about?

Page 5 of the TRD spring install instructions will show you where they're at:

When my NF springs were installed, we cut the first (smallest) nub off of the end of the stop before reinstalling. Not cutting down the bump stops at all on a DF spring drop could potentially limit the front suspension travel because the spring compression will be limited by the height of the bump stop.
