Are you looking to install a relocation bar so you can inboard shocks / \ or do you just want to run longer shocks? Either way you will need to cut part of the spring pad.

Sweet 2nd gen!! Any more pics? Looks a lot like mine, just a different color.

I got this from Sky:
http://www.sky-manufacturing.com/suspension2.htm

Bottom 3rd of the page:
Part # TOY-RSM-001, $60.

Welded right in, and my upper spring buckets are still attached to the frame.

It would depend how much you have already removed of your original suspension to really be able to answer your question though.
