Default Tow hooks going to fit?

Hopefully someone who already has a bodylift can help me out. I am going with the PA 2" and I want to know if I am going to have to cut the lower part of my bumper to get the hooks to fit, or do I have to make brackets to drop them down? I would like to know this before I start so I can figure out what I am going to do?

Thanks, I just didn't want it to turn into one of those things that turns into a pain when you think you are done.

I honestly cant tell you they are laying next to the truck on the floor of the garage. My whole truck has been ripped apart for a couple weeks or so since I started this project.

I have a 2000 4 door Blazer and when i put my 2 inch PA body lift on i had to cut some off of my front bumper, so you may have to. If these pictures work,here are some pictures of it after i cut it and dont really mind itbecause it gave mea little more front clearance.

wouldn't it be easier to get spacers and longer bolts for the tow hooks, little bit more asthetically pleasing to look at too.
