im sure if you were to call elka they would say that the linkage isnt designed for a stock shock and it isnt. since the linkage gives increased travel and changes the rear geometry i would have to say that it truly is best suited to change the link when you upgrade your shocks. giving that every application is different, the leverage changes due to the changes elka makes compared to the original oem angles, to me there is no way to effectively guess how well or poorly it would work.
