Sorry no real tips, but you can add them as long as you have shocks that are long enough and you have the correct track bar, pitman arm and so forth.

The pucks are for extending your bumpstops, not more lift.

Agreed. Pucks are used to extend your bumpstops. If you want to level out the ride height, look for coil spacers and/or leveling kits depending on just how much you need to level it.

Also be aware that adding large lift shackles to the rear will change your driveshaft angle and could induce vibes.

Sorry i was thinking he was refering to coil spacers as pucks, cause i often do. But yes hockey pucks can be used as bumpstops. thanks for the correction.
