Two issues I have seen, although some vendors will tell you their product is not affected by half height body bushings (and they could be correct):

1 - Trans tunnel/crossmemeber issue. Using lower height body bushings makes the body sit closer with less space between the frame. You may or may not have this problem, but a larger trans like a t56 may hit the trans tunnel. Ask Todd and Tyler about this one.
2 - Possible inner fender clearance w 275+ tires. Lower body = closer tolerances when suspension compresses.

There's prob more, but that's all I've seen documented. I wanted half height bushings, but a couple of gurus talked me out of it...
