How do you fit them? 2 of them have holes in and the other 2 don't, do I need to weld them on?

Photo of them please.

The ones with the holes in will be for the front. Get those fitted as thats where the problem is.

I still think they will be trying to invert the shackles even with the bump stop spacers fitted.

Worth fitting them to avoid any damage though.

Dont know how the rears would fit as a bolt on item as there's no original holes to use.

Rears are probably weld on. I just welded all of mine on. I was being lazy.

Doesn't it say in the instructions?

Ring MGP for advice.

Just had a look now, looks like I do have to weld on the rear, only problem now is I don't have a welder

Drill the rear mounts like the front (i wanted to tap them too) well, I was going to......... But never got around to it

Fronts should have a set of longer bolts with them.

Soak the fronts on your SJ with a good amout of WD40 over night as i always shear the bolt when i undo them.

Yeah never thought of that, would there be room on the chassis to drill holes too? For some strange reason the bump stops are in different places front and rear
