1.5 lifts require studs to be ground down about 1/4 inch

It's easy just use a grider with a metal grinding wheel.

I just finished replacing my 2" ROX ebay kit (P.O.S.), that gave me way more height than I wanted, with a MotoFab 1.5". This install went 1000x better, I got a 1000x better quality part, I didn't have to cut the studs and now I got the look that I wanted!

My dealer didn't mention anything about having to cut the studs. I will have to ask them.

How is everything holding up the 1.5 autospring leveling kit wanting to do one to my 2016 until I'm ready to buy bigger tires. I'm thinking of upgrading rear shocks and the leveling kit to stiff up the ride a little

I've had mine on for 15,000 miles, paired with 33" KO2's, and haven't had any issues.
