I put a 2in leveling kit on with the stock shocks. I had no problems. I still have the spacers on with a 6in rc lift with there shocks and so for no problems.

Hello, my mounts actually cracked when removing the rad support to install the body lift. I ordered a set of inserts from jeffs bronco graveyard and welded those in.







Heres my old rad support completely rotted:

yea I welded those hex circles in, but thats mostly because it was rotted and cracked. Other than that I did nothing. Those factory welds to the frame can support my own weight I tried jumping on the mounts lol.

Stock suspension and wheels? You'll rub. Look into getting a leveling kit. I have 2in coil spacers on the front of mine or a lot of people use them moog c824 or c844s to level it out.
