Anyone installed the EVO Overland Control Arm Brackets?

can you spread the LCA inner frame mount with a pry bar? Seems I had to do that on my JLU

That would have made it worse.

I know you've heard this a couple times already, but trying to reinstall, this time with pictures, would really help.

i'm trying to remember if the bracket fit between the stock mount or on the outside

In the 1st picture, is the driver's side with the UCA mounted with the spacer and the LCA with only the bolt. I tried clamping it and the holes would not align by about 1/4". I would need to trim the LCA spacer by about 3/8". I needed washers, so I headed to ACE, while there found shorter spacers, so didnt have to shorten the supplied ones. They are split side spacers, so I will to make sure they don't open up and work thier way out.

The 2nd picture is the driver's side after tourquing everything. You can see the washers between the frame and bracket. This was to keep the bolt from having a torsional load as the brvket is pulled to the frame.

The passenger side was as bad, but still needed a smaller spacer and washers.

Here is the solution.


Smaller spacers and washers.
