I got everything but my new sway bar links so I am going to attempt this tomorrow then change my links when they come in. Does anyone see a problem with moving the rear links forward and using the AEV brackets and links in the rear?

I got it to fit. Just finished and got all cleaned up. I still have to do the front tomorrow (later today) and replace the LCA bolts and torque everything. Right now the rear looks so tall, but I don't have my spare on right now as I'm doing a 5 tire rotation at the same time.

thanks it rides great the rear is a little taller still, but a rear bumper will fix that. I will also prob get an adjustable front track bar eventually. My axle is offset 1/2 inch. I got 2.75" lift front and about 3.5 rear. The Rancho brackets are awesome. They were a breeze to install.
