JKS Bar Pin Eliminators prevent distortion of the shock absorber bushings by adding lateral compression, or preload. This ensures the bushings maintain their shape and deflect suspension impact forces to the shock absorbers, thus preventing the annoying noises and premature bushing failure common with standard bar pins.
Bar Pin Eliminators utilize a cleverly constructed system of blocks and pins machined from premium grade, zinc plated steel. When installed, the blocks actually squeeze the bushing to create the recommended amount of crush specified by bushing manufacturers, thus providing the ideal environment for proper bushing operation.
The smooth, machined surfaces of the Bar Pin Eliminator reduce friction at the bushing surface, unlike the porous and corrosion prone, substandard metals used for most bar pins. And unlike other designs on the market, JKS Bar Bin Eliminators mount to the vehicle in alignment with suspension movement, taking advantage of bushing rotation and reducing stress on the shock absorber and bushings.

in other words, when your stock rear upper shock mounts break, you get BPE's.
