Thanks for the photo. Based on your specific setup you won't need a spacer like the # F2368 because the bracket sits at the lip above the lift block. You will however need to get hardware long enough to span that extra lift block distance. Check out the 10 minute to 17 minute section of the attached video to assist with that bracket and see that hardware at the 13 minute mark. You will need to obtain that hardware locally.
