They are made to be used with the stock top mounts but you can use an aftermarket one like the GC mount, especially if the car is lowered quite a bit and you want to trade some extra compression stroke for some droop travel. There is a current thread here abut them.

I think you mean "trade some droop travel, for extra compression travel". I could have that backwards in my mind though. The end result is that extended upper mounts will help keep you from bottoming out your shocks on bumps...

Ground Control, or stock should work well.

I stand corrected as I meant one thing and typed it sounding the other way. I didn't make it clear which was the give and which was the get.

Give = droop travel
Get = compression travel
