I have a 1991 Geo Tracker(virtually the same as your sidekick), and when I bought my spacers from Jeff1997....I bought a pair of shocks from the rear of a 1991 Ford Crown Victoria.  They were 15 dollars each.   Very cheap!  All I had to do was cut/hammer/pry out the metal sleeves from the bushings on my old shocks, and shove them into the crown vic shocks.  Was kind of a pain.....since I was using very primitive hand tools(hammer...  =/ )  Would take about 5 seconds with a decent cutting tool(angle grinder).

I just built and installed a 2" spacer lift on my buddy's Tracker, I put in shocks from a 98 crown vic they fit good and it rides nice. Only thing is I wish they were a little longer to allow more drop

95 mustang shocks are the right length, and they bolt right in.  The crown vic shocks are common, but you will need to hammer the metal sleeve out of your original shock and use it in the crown vic shocks.
