I could have sworn that I read there were issues with the 12/13 that required cutting to make it fit?

Depending on the year yes you need to trim a little to make them fit. Newer years I think. Mine is a 10 and I had to do a little trimming.

There was some small frame change mid year if I'm remembering right. Either way it's not a big deal to make it fit. It is heavy though. I would recommended progressive springs or spring spacers.
