Shock mounting?
« on: August 15, 2005, 08:14:31 PM »
I have a question that's been nagging at me.  I installed some new shocks in the back of my XJ a little while ago. I had been using the old rear sway bar mounts as bar pin eliminators, using the stock mounting locations for the bpe's then installing the shock to the bpe's i noticed the shock mounts are 90 degrees out
kind of like this

O-----||

Is there enough give in the bushings (rs5000's) to not destroy the shocks or should I look at doing the top mount differently so both mounts are in the same plane  like this O-----O
