Sorry for my slowness.

JT... remove the upper billett shim from the shock assembly completely. Replace with three large washers instead. ( Or if you like you can have the upper billett shim machined down to +/- 1/4" and still use it.)

If your frame is drilled for two shock mounting holes, use the lower one. If not, drill a new hole below the original hole as far down as you can, and still be able to install the 'nut' on the shaft.

On the lower connection go ahead and use the supplied spacer.
This modification will allow you to use the roll bar Don sent. It is still close to the shock when installed but no worry's, it will work.

Now as far as having a 'lean' once the main hoop is mounted, this can be corrected with small shims. The 'U' shims suppled with the kit will work just fine.

I did borrow a camera but it doesn't seem to wrok well in our 7 degree temperature! Heck, I don't work well in 7 degree temperatures!

Call me if I can be of any further help..I am in the shop everyday...cold or not!. 721 425-6823.
