So, Rough Country says they won't sell me a set of Braces for their Drop Brackets. They only sell the kit as a whole.

I would like to buy some RC Drop Bracket braces. Or I will trade my set of new RE drop bracket braces for some RC Braces.


Any chance anyone has a set?

Thanks.
 
Whats wrong with the RE ones Mike? I've got the RC's on mine right now.
 
Not right now, but they're these exact braces in this kit:

When I bought my drop brackets, the guy said they were RE, so I bought RE braces. As far as I can tell, my drop brackets are actually RC, and the RE braces won't fit.

Where the RC brace mates with the drop bracket/stock LCA mount, that surface is flat.

For the RE ones, where the brace mates with the drop bracket, it is offset relatave to where it would mate to the stock LCA mount.

This is becuase the drop brackets are made different. See the pic, the top is RC, the bottom is RE, and the red is where the rear part of the stock LCA would be.

When I try to put the RE braces on the RC brackets, I end up with a huge gap between the stock LCA and the brace.
