Iro bpe push the bottom of the front shocks out a little to keep the shock from hitting the unibody .

Yeah they're for a TJ.
I've been wondering why the manufacturer failed to list these as compatible with XJs, so I just wanted to throw it out there that... for $20... yes they are indeed compatible with XJs.

The BPEs are acting nicely. There is no more "popping" noise now when turning curbs. I think this may have finally done the trick.

That was going to be my route for the rear, until someone told me that it would limit the maneuverability of the shock because you're mounting it at a 90º angle from its stock point.
So I went with the $20 straight TJ BPEs from RC. Basically does the same thing and keeps the factory shock angle while still eliminating the rear bar pin.
