I ordered from serious.
I don't think it'll be hard to come up with something to mount them.

I've got the RE stem adapter and it drops the mount about an inch or so. Maybe Fox has a comparable shock.

That's awesome I get mine done for free from a family friend that sets tons of gears for race car every year. Just tossed a few of his stickers on the jeep for payment.

What if, say.... I possibly find a tow rig and trailer? I have something in mind...just not sure how/if it will work out...she might not be done, but doesn't mean she can't wheel as is!?

JKS makes an adapter for them. I bought them and didn't end up needing them for my shocks.

Just drained my account again. Just ordered OME springs in the 3" range.
Hopefully there won't be to many more expenses, I still need new hubs and brake pads for the front. I can't think of anything else that I might need.
