Geo brackets or Mopar LCA’s for AEV Mojave kit??

[CGilly6]

Anyone have part #s for the geo brackets? I see two from AEV and not sure on the rancho. Just want to make sure I’m getting the right one. Thanks for the help.

In the past I have always felt AEV's stuff was overpriced for what it is.......I suppose that is the case if you look only at the "Production costs" of the spacer/drop bracket lifts. The key is the amount of time they have spent on making the package work properly.

They also manufacture as much of their stuff in the US as possible which probably doesn’t help with cost!

If you didn't get the full AEV kit that already comes with the brackets you may want to look at the Rancho brackets. I liked the welded construction better and they cost less.
The brackets made a huge difference one my Mojave with the 2" AEV lift, and while the caster is technically out of spec at +5.9, I'm leaving it there, because the ride quality is awesome.
I think you'll find others who agree that that's a good setup for caster.

A drive line spacer is something to consider adding as well. Super simple to install.

Second one.

Thanks suprised so low caster for second hole. I thought would be closer to +7.0 from what I have read. Guess I will go with the second and not even try the first one.

Rancho says second one for 3" lift.
I figured that's standard Mojave plus 2" AEV. Should be about right.

Oh you were adding the 1 inch more cause of the Mojave?

 

[Kyle10]

Thanks putting on Lift and brackets tmw. Will use middle hole then thanks

Yes. The Mojave comes about one inch higher from what I've read.

I too have a Mojave and used the AEV lift with Rancho brackets. I used the second hole as well after reading all the comments.
I just got it all together yesterday, and I feel like the steering is a little loose(and really easy to turn) and maybe has a bit of a wander to it. Did you feel the same thing?

No, but I had previously tightened the steering gearbox and removed the free play.

Good to know. Next Monday it goes in for alignment, I think I will see what the numbers come back at and look into adjusting if it still needs it.
Thank you for the input, greatly appreciated.

I forgot to mention that I also replaced the factory stabilizer with the Falcon adjustable. Appreciable improvement there as well.
