Alright, so if I understand correctly, the “no-weld sleeve base” in the Elephant Racing assembly above fits onto the shock snug enough that the force of the springs doesn’t push it down?

And if that’s the case, and makes the shock/sleeve/spring an assembly, how does the spindle assembly attach to that? Is it also just a friction fit?

Won’t jacking up the car, or going over a big enough bump just push the spindle assembly off the shock assembly?

Some background on why I’m asking is I have a box full of suspension components (conversation kits from both Rebel and Elephant) but everything is on pieces. The issue seems to be further confused by using a Boge/Koni (?) spindle bottom, which is larger then the Bilstein spindle bottoms. I can make a new collar with the proper dimensions, but want to make sure i understand the design behind these kits before I go modifying anything.
