Got my replacement brackets. Can't say enough good things about RR CS. Not only did I get the new brackets, I also got a whole new winch tray and both hooks. Comes packaged together.
But unfortunately these brackets are not right either. They appeared straight. But when I installed them this is what I get.
The drivers side obviously is sitting lower. And the passenger side is sitting so close to the bumper it will eventually cause damage to the light from rubbing.

It is pretty mild steel and easily bent. If careful you could diy but will probably break the coating. I plan I doing thing and then just spraying with some liner material.

It looks like your jeep has a lazy eye. LOLGot my replacement brackets. Can't say enough good things about RR CS. Not only did I get the new brackets, I also got a whole new winch tray and both hooks. Comes packaged together.

Something just isn't right. Are you sure the support bracket is on the top of each fog?
Also there is a ton of play in everything when tightening the bolts down. You should be able to move the stamped steel section, horns, fog a bit before going full ham on torquing them down. Then just reach behind and adjust the in and out with some applied force.

I swear it's like reading my autobiography. If there's a 50/50 chance of getting it right the first time then there's a 100% chance of me getting it wrong twice before I get it right.

Yep. One of mine was tweaked too. Nothing a couple of love taps from mjolnir can't fix.
Had to do the same today - that's supposed to be straight... Little love from the dead blow fixed it right up
