Are you putting them on top of a lift or no?

Looks as if there just longer adjustable versions of the stock shackles. I'd think they'd bolt right up without having to mess with anything else.

Mike Albo brings up a good point. If your already lifted you could have a problem with shock length.

When reinstalling your spring bolts I'd recommend some antisieze, especially the top bolt going into the unibody.
