Default AEV brackets + Adj LCAs

Is anyone running both of these together?

If so what are the benefits? Is it overkill or would they work well in conjunction?

I would just run the adjustable LCA and not run any brackets.. The brackets are used so that you don't have to run adjustable LCA's and can keep the stock ones.

So the brackets do not provide any benefits that the LCAs dont already give you?

I imagine that because they mount lower they decrease the angles on the control arms but other then maybe decreasing the amount your axle would want to rotate towards the rear of the jeep during axle droop I can't say what you would be gaining. I would not do both. But depending on lift height I may not do either one.

No....in fact the brackets drop your CA down further which exposes the lower to one to damage at the mounting location plus the CA itself. It's a PITA to take off the brackets but I would recommend running only the adj CA if that's the route you want to go.
