    As long as your bushings are completely crapped out, you have proper bumpstoped, and everything is properly torqued you have nothing to worry about. I don't know about yall, but I have a ton of grease zerks on my suspension, so greasing regularly too.

    I have JKS adapters in the front, didn't have to redrill the hole like they said to. The front ones are rears shocks meant for a 3" lift. Ones on the back are rears for a 4" lift. I can give you part numbers and shock length at sitting height tomorrow if you want them. I think I remember the 4"ers being ~21 inches extended - ~17 inches collapsed. It's a night and day difference in ride quality though, I like stiff shocks so that I can feel the road but also don't like to upset passengers with ****ty ride comfort. Wont buy any other shock again

    I really doubt your shocks only have 4" of travel.
    With the adapter you must not have have very much uptravel? How far have you extended your bump stops?
    Google says
    Fits 3" Lift - Rear
    22.44" / 13.98"
    Eye / Eye

    Fits 4" Non Long Arm Lift - Rear
    25.50" / 15.49"

    Ive got somewhere around 13 zerks on mine. I get them lubed every time i get an oil change.
