I don't have any idea personally, but from what I've seen almost everyone cuts the stock spring perch off to allow more adjustability and choice with wheel selection.

Here's a 5-lug swap that features the Ground Control setup:

call up ground control and tell them what shocks you have. They have set's that are made for certain shocks like tokico for example. The sleeve needs to fit the shock shaft. But yes like dave said you will need to cut the spring perch to get maximum adjustment
