you can kinda figure it out if you just go by the lengths...

I have the same exact lift at home waiting to be installed...funny i just sorted out all the parts last night...

The lower control arms are the bigger beefier looking arms, the front are the longer and the shorter are the rear.

As said before, the pickle fork looking are for the front and the other two are for the rear.

The longer of the two track bars goes in back and the shorter up front.

I just made a post asking about where to measure last night, so if you're curious, its middle of joint to middle of joint.
