They bolt in between your shock and the top shock mount making up the difference of length to compensate for the lift. Basicly they allow you to use your stock shocks without issue and save you a dime in the process.

Just a word of caution, you're not going to find many fans of big wheels on this site. Good luck with your search.

I don't get it either. I'm not a fan of big wheels but I'm not a hater. There are a few posters on this site that feel their idea of what a Jeep should look like is the right way and anyone that thinks differently gets mocked. It's a shame really. I feel there is no right and wrong as long as the owner likes it.

Hey I dont like big wheels on the JK either, but its not mine its yours, all I did was try to help you figure out how to get what you wanted. Build it like you want it and screw everyone else!!!!
