Default Rear shock relocation

Anybody running a rear shock relocation bracket? I'm getting a popping noise every once in a while in the rear and it almost feels like the upper shock mount allows the shock to slide and hit the unibody. Already changed the upper bushings on the RE shocks. I feel like this might make it more secure. Also, any recommendations on types/brands?

Have the jks crossover mount.. had to dump the exhaust before the axle to use the inner 2 bolt holes on the passanger side.. and its all bent up from the PO running too long of shocks and bottoming them really hard apparently...

I was just thinkin how it might be bulky, plus I don't really need the multiple adjustments.

Any thoughts in these?
