Has anyone tried these out? One of my rear shocks keeps breaking bolts and/or ripping them out. I'm tired of messing with it and thought about picking these up and having them welded in so I won't have to deal with it anymore. There are two different sizes. Any thoughts?

you can weld in stock xj rer swaybar brackets and run a double shear through bolt to mount your shocks. much cheaper and stronger option.

That's a good idea. I actually found this site that explains it if anyone else has a question about it.
