by the looks of the kit I would almost bet you need to separate the flange. or if you are a Chevy guy clean the flange and weld over the old. LOL

the kit appears to have holes drilled to replicate the spot welds on original flange.

I also like the Relocation kit, you cant screw that one up either, unless you are a Chevy guy!!! smile
