Default Finally ditched AEV drop brackets

Well, I finally got around to ditching my AEV drop brackets. My Rock Krawler CA's are now freed!! I haven't noticed any real difference on-road and now I have more clearance for off-road. I'm sure they do well for those who don't want to spend $ on CA's, but it was time for me to evolve.

X2 on the brackets.... they can save a poor cop like me lots of money as my jeep evolves....i don't HAVE to buy lower control arms until I go over 4.5 " of lift. Which I will never do.

After 1000 miles of on-road driving; I indeed have noticed a difference. Without the brackets, it's a little more squirrelly and dramatic switching lanes and turning at speed and going across expansion joints and railroad tracks. Bottom line; the brackets do what they are intended to do for on-road driving but I am still happy I took them off due to my desire to expand off-road capability. For those that that mostly do on-road, I would recommend them.
