no such thing it has a torsion bar and that needs to be replaced and a gusseted plate needs to be welded in as well as a lower mount for the bag.

I actually had bolt on brackets on my truck when I got it, I dunno where they came from.. but no cutting of the bumpstops or anything was required.. pretty simple to install I'm guessing since it was easy to take off when I decided to weld some on.
Only downside is, when you lift the front end up past a certain point, since the bumpstop area is still sticking off the frame, this requires the upper bag mount to stick farther out as compared to one thats welded directly to the frame.. it causes the top bellow of the bag to rub the castle nut on the spindle..
You can see the damage caused by this: HERE
And since anything rubbing a bag like that is bad, the brackets arent really a good idea unless you REALLY pay attention to how high you are riding, at ride height I had a good amount of clearance usually cruising around.. but when at full lock almost, it pushed in bad.
