A couple of things to keep in mind. If you have a steering stabilizer bar you will want to grind off the bottom rivets of the first crossmember so that you can bolt your lowering brackets to them. On the back you will want to take off the stock shock brackets. Of course all of this depends on how low you go! I'm doing a 4/6 drop and these are a couple of things that needed to be removed prior to powder coating the frame.
