Hey, how's it going Erik? Here is a link to the shocks. http://www.rustysoffroad.com/jeep-su...ormance-shocks
I used the R-313R shocks because they matched my rear leaf spring suspensions articulation measurements.
Five inches of lift in the rear. Five and a half in the front.
The shocks attach to the axles by tabs that have been welded to the tops of the leaf spring mounting plates.
And yes the suspension is still leaf spring rear and coil front.

I'll take this posting opportunity to say to the critics that after a couple of years of hard off roading that there is no sign of movement or stress at the mounting points of the shock towers.
