I ended up changing out the Teraflex 2.5" BB lift and went with MetalCloak 2.5" springs and OME shock setup.
I'm still running the AEV drop brackets, which will be changed out in about a week or so. Just ordered MetalCloak lower control arms. The AEV brackets do "ok" but you will get a slight back and forth feeling in the front end. Like the nose is moving left/right. I don't think the brackets are all that strong personally and it allows for a little bit of play.
I really didn't want to spend the extra $$$ on lower adjustables, but with the roads here in Maine I really need them.

Interesting, first person I've seen try and describe the back and Forth feeling. I noticed this with both AEV and Rancho.'Not a problem but it's not there with arms.
If you have the $$$ get uppers too. Being able to push the axle a small amount forward helps a lot.
