yep, you could install the rear links on the inside and you'll be good to go. or, if it's easier for you, you can just leave the stock ones in place. the only real issues people are having are with rubicons as the front links are way too short and can invert when flexing on the trail. if you have a rubicon, you definitely want to get longer links for the rear and install your factory rears up front.

I have an 08' X and just didn't want to spend the money for spacers when I'm eventually getting new wheels and tires. I just wanted to make sure, if using as my DD, that it was ok to go with the stock links until I can fund that upgrade. Thanks for the responses.
