Default Removing RC 1.25 body lift 2013 jku

So im wanting to remove the rc 1.25 body lift from my 13 jku. The only problem I may run into is getting the factory studs back into body mounts. They had to be knocked out during install and not sure how hard it will be to get them back in? Does anyone have any input/experience with this?

It should be just as easy as it took putting in the body lift studs. What do you plan on doing with the body lift afterwards? I might be interested in it.

I will be selling it. It took a larger hammer to knock them out. I assume they are pressed in from factory? I guess ill find out how hard to get them back in.

I had intended to go larger tires and just didnt want a stuffed look. I also added bumpers and the gap is more noticeable and bugging me.
