jQuery("div.shipping_address").css({ "display": 'none !important' });

Welcome Back Jo,
Css function in jQuery doesn't support !important so the other way to do this is by adding using .attr like this code below

jQuery("div.shipping_address").attr("style", "display: none !important;");

this gonna work with you also you can keep main style of the div by storing the attribute value in element then add it to the code above like

var styleAttr = jQuery("div.shipping_address").attr('style');
jQuery("div.shipping_address").attr("style", styleAttr+"display: none !important;");

Good luck
