Default Shock extension
Just installed new Bilstein 5100 on my JK with a 2.5BB, ordered longers shocks to replace factory shocks with extension. I just realized tonight that i left the rear extension brackets on when i installed the new shocks. What if any problems will this cause?

well, depending on how much shock shaft you have left exposed, you may be at risk of bottoming out your shocks.
