And, if you should ever decide to go back to control arms, you have the enlarged hole to deal with. Save your money and buy control arms.

I thought they only come with AEV kits. They don't come in anything teraflex makes.

I'm not sure what each manufacturers include in their kits. I haven't looked at any in a while. But most manufacturers recomend Camber Adjustment. And your not going to get control arms with a budget kit.

No cam bolts in my kit. I agree front lower control arms will probably be in my future but not at this point. Seems like a lot of guys are fine without them. Being that mine is a 4 door, from what I've read the angles are still pretty good to not need them in the back as much.

Sorry,there are NO caster adjustment bolts with ANY TeraFlex JK lift.
