The airbox is bolted to the body so it would need to be lowered back down, not raised more (but you're probably not going to be able to do that very easily). I've seen 2 others' airboxes crack from BLs. One friend bought a cheap K&N wannabee air filter from Autozone for like $35 (IIRC) to replace his cracked airbox. I would just keep an eye on it, you may be ok. Mine is fine still.

I'm not sure about the linkage for a 2", I only have a 1" and I just loosened the one bolt on mine, lifted it and tightened it back down. The radiator drop doesn't look too bad. 4crawler's BL instructions should tell you what needs to be done to the linkage and anything else.

Here's the BL instructions from 4crawler (which has all the necessary steps for 2"+ lifts toward the bottom):

If you have a laptop and a camera I'd keep them handy - if you have problems just snap a pic of it and post it on here.

If you do it during a busy time on the forum I bet you'll get an answer pretty quick.

Yeah don't be worried, I was apprehensive as well but I was bored so I went out and started pulling trim pieces to see just how "hard" it would be, I loosened some of the body mount bolts and decided to just go for it. A couple hours later I was done and wondering what I thought was gonna be so hard.
