Depends on the approach. Making your own brackets means you can build them w/the stock shocks measurements in mind.
Buying aftermarket? You'll need to compare measurements (fully compressed; ride height; fully extended) of the upper & lower brackets once installed vs. the same measurements of a stock shock.
Something to keep in mind:
The stock rear shocks are pretty short though as is. It might be a struggle to find something shorter that works (is valved) correctly for the application.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
