i got a 75 cruiser did a 2in body reset springs to 3in roughly, you gotta watch out for radiator hoses, wiring loom, heater hoses, break lines, diff breathers clutch lines, i only had to change heater hoses and rerun a bit of loom but see how ya go

for 2" body lift rad cowl needs botttom trimmed out and steering colum need losening and the transfer leaver hole needs extending the rest should be fine. for spring lift i would extend the hoses
