AEV JK Control Arm Brackets Install Question

[jrueppel]

Hi all, I've got what might be a really dumb question but I'm pretty new at wrenching on the Jeep and want to be sure I get it right.

I've gotten all of my AEV 2.5 lift except for the brackets onto the Jeep and there's no detailed photo of exactly where all the washers go once everything is bolted up. Can some one who's finished their's verify for me I've got it right before I torque it all down. AEV included a bunch of extra washers and bolts in the kit and it's not clear what's extra and what's needed.

Best I can tell the lower control arms set up should go <bolt, big fat washer, frame, bracket, control arm, bracket, big fat washer, nut>.

I've dug around on the AEV forum and online looking for a good photo of what's supposed to go on there but haven't found anything.
Anybody set this up and know how it's supposed to go or took a photo?

many thanks!
J

Displeased with the AEV instructions? Wish I could say I'm surprised, they are junk.
If I was 100% sure that mine went together as it should I would tell you, but if you can't figure it out just give them a call. At least you are doing it on a week day!

That is how I put mine together

Thanks! Got the brackets on and it drives great. Now if somebody could convince AEV to write instructions that were as good as their product.
