About to do the purchase but does the kit come complete with the bracket for the height adjuster for rear air suspension?

On metco's website link it says "slightly" modified and instructions are included. It can't be that difficult I would imagine. Call them up and ask, they are helpful people

I didn't have to modify mine, just remove from the old one and install on the new one.

Yes, I've had the Metco's on for at least 10 years. Just match up the new Watts link with the old one because you can install it upside down. The nut on the rear end is tight... really really tight, like over 200 ft lbs tight. Remember to grease the bushings at least twice a year.

To "modify" the bracket you pop the rivets out and use bolts.

Mine was bolted in from the factory.
