they don't have it on thier website right now. The kit basically move the shock inboard to clear for a larger tires. it also positions the shocks to a non staggered setup in board of the frame rails and the kit has provision for an e brake cable. in my case I am staying with stock tubs but I am converting the rear brakes to disc brakes and I perfer not to run two left calipers. the staggered shocks hits one of the caliper.

Hi guys. Im new to this site.I am looking for some help with this brp shock relocation kit. I just bought mine. It didn't come with any instructions. I was under the impression you could use stock style shocks, which is not the case. what did you guys use for shocks. My car is lowered 2 inches in the back. Thanks for any info.

I'd install the upper mount, then measure the distance between your upper and lower mounting holes at ride-height. Even if BMR had suggested a shock length, you wouldn't necessarily want to spec your shocks blindly as rear springs and weight of the car can differ greatly. You want a shock length to be such that the shock is roughly 1/3 compressed at ride height (fully assembled), if memory serves.
