Brown Body Lift...

I'm ordering a 1" lift for a '96. RB states that people rarely use the radiator relocate brackets with his lifts. Why would I need or not need this part?
Will my aftermarket headers and exhaust make any difference with a body lift?

The fan will now be positioned an inch lower in relation to the radiator. this isn't an issue because the radiator hoses will still reach ok and the bottom half of the radiator fan shroud has a removable piece. By taking this piece off, there will be no interference with fan.

Talking body lift

I had a 2" body lift on mine and I just took the lower valance off the radiator, and then when I just took the body lift off, I had it to put back on. Much easier than moving the whole radiator up/down.

With a 1" BL, I did not have to lower the radiator and the fan still fit within the shroud intact.

Very easy and straight forward install.
