You need to trim away a small portion of the upper spring perch so that the easy street bracket cqan sit flush to the subframe. The area trimmed, from looking at it, I personally feel that the factory springs could be reinstalled just fine without this little bit of upper spring perch. It would not be terribly hard to fabricate some steel to replace the removed section if it came to that. I have easy street air and I do not think I will ever end up reinstalling springs anyway
