JKS BPE question
is it me or does it look like the JKS BPES still require you to remove the BPE for future shock installation.
Am I wrong in thinking that one of the best reasons for using the BPES is so that you don't have to deal with rear the shock bolts.
If you look at this pic from their web site I don't see how you could remove the shock without removing the BPE. Let me know or better yet who has these installed and do u have to remove them to replace the shocks.

I believe you have to remove the bolts but that's not the reason for the bpe. They are to help save shock bushings from getting chewed up from the bar pin. Stock bar pins let the shock bushing smash and twist with the suspension travel and the bpe doesn't. Saving bushings

These are from rust's and the will solve the problem. Sorry I can't get the link to load. Just pics. I know other companies have these too but can't think of them right now.
