ive searched and all it brings up is what im not looking for, hoping for a litte help here...

ive noticed that the bilstein 5165 that i plan on ordering are both hoops at each end, where as ther xj uses a screw at the top and a barpin through the hoop at the bottom...what are my options for installing these? any good writeups?(trust me i searched)

If you have access to a welder you could make your own adaptors for the stud for dirt cheap

When I was thinking about installing some universal shocks, this was the stem adapter for the front that SeriousOffroad offered to me:

You will need also adapters for the rear upper. JKS offers a Relocation bar that costs $164.

After that I decided that 5100 were good enough for me :-)
