Shocks are too big, get some monroes or gabriels.
x2 about the lower bump pads? if you expect those bumps to strike the existing steal, your gonna have a lot of coil interfearance, ie, noises and clunks, and added wear on the bumps, especially the pads. Adding hockey pucks, or a steel plate and a slice of tubing made to look like a hockey puck will 'split the differance'

Im hopefully picking up the shocks that Joel from Bilstein custom made for jim for this XJ this weekend from another member here. I don't have a running car right now so I need to get this buttoned up ASAP. Bumming rides isn't working out for me and I need something to drive to work!
The Land Rover had a brake caliper go bad so im waiting on parts for that

...and yes these shocks are the ones that Jim originally had planned for the build and I couldn't be more happier to have them!

Mock up shots, I gotta do some massage work with a hammer where the 90* is and put strike pads and limit straps on then I can go ahead and call the front done.

FYI here is what that mount (Looks identical other that my lower CA mount was 3/16 not stock like yours looks) looks like after I think 2 laps maybe 3 at Bluewater.

That's how I setup my lower shock mounts, they are fully boxed and shouldn't come off of the axle any time soon.
