Default lift installed, and I have a question.

Ok so yesterday I installed 1.75" coil spacers in the rear and 2.5" coil spacers in the front (daystar and teraflex). I used FT shocks and ordered them specifically for the JK. Now when I went to put the shocks on the rear I noticed they had set them up upside down, so i swapped the ends around and installed them the exact same way as the factory. On the front I came across the same issue, but on the front shocks it did not look possible to change the ends around so I just mounted them upside down. Is this going to be a problem?

Charging my camera battery now, pics to come I promise.

I had to remove bar pins on my M-Force, I think they are the same one's as the TJ's.

no, the front's mount with a bolt on the bottom,(removed bar pin) and have a nut on the top like the normal TJ' set up..
