Dislocation cones are there so that if the axle drops too far and the spring pops out its housing they feed it back into it as the axle moves back to its normal position. I had a problem with mine popping out at full articulation and without them is rarely seated properly again. Rather than pay £40+ for some though I just added a couple of U bolts to stop them popping out at the top. Works great and was only £3 the pair.   :D

Ho, hum....., you just wait until it rips the retaining clamps out from the bottom of the spring, slides over and rips your brake hose off and then gets jammed between the wheel and axle......., makes the £40 look damm good, don't it  :!:  :!:
