That spot in the frame is what I have seen broken out from carrying heavy trunks for too many years.I don't have to raise the body to remove the bracket,but I do have to raise the body to weld the frame piece back in.I've done a few over the years,mostly for people that had to carry half the car in spare parts and a box of tools.When you get a bunch of weight cantilevered out there,bouncing up and down,that's about the weakest spot.
 
the correct answer is no you do not have to lift the body

The correct answer is ...You do not need to lift the body IF the person that installed the Bumper Bracket inserted the Bolt in the correct orientation. If they inserted the Bolt from the topside, you cannot lift the Bolt high enough to clear the bracket.
