Looking to add a set of drop brackets. Looked at a few. AEV, JKS to name two. What are you all running? Im not rock crawling so clearance isnt a big concern. Are you happy with it? Did you end up adding control arms anyways? Pictures would be awesome too.

2” spacers up front and .75” rear lift. Mojave springs and shocks.

I have a Mojave with a 2" spacer in the rear and 3" in the front. I have a lot of other bits including adjustable LCA's. The AEV drop brackets installed made the most drastic difference in drivability. It took the feel back to stock.

I have my eye on those. Thanks for the feedback. $400 cdn but appear to be simple to install and well made.

In addition, did you get a new track bar up front or at least a track bar bracket?

I had a JLUR previously and had and took the Steersmarts ADJ trackbar with me. So I have the lift, adjustable LCA'S, trackbar, shock extensions, longer end links, RockJox carrier bearing spacer, steering box TSB done and drop brackets. It really drives great. The 37's as I've learned as seem to make the ride feel a little less tight. I have the Nitto Ridge Grapplers I run at 33 psi cold. I could probably drop that a little. I bet I'm running a bit too much caster as I never backed off the LCA's, but I intend to leave it high, I just need to ensure it's not too high. Candidly I don't know how much caster is too much and what running high caster can cause.
