GMs 2” lift kit

[buckshot85]

I had a ‘23 TB and traded for a ‘24 standard 1500 for a longer box.
Anyway, I’m planning on installing Bilstein TB coil overs and shocks. I have new UCAs, shafts, stabilizer links, rear spring spacers and u-bolts and rear jounce bumper spacers.

In the GM kit are 2 parts called compatibility brackets. They appear to get mounted towards the front air dam somewhere.
What are these for and is it something that needs doing?

It looks to me like they are there to protect the front lower radiator or lower facia area just incase you go off road and misjudge your approach angle and start scraping up there.

That’s a good thought. Guess I’ll take another look under there.
