The reason why you cannot run this kit with other kits is because you are required to cut off the lower control arm brackets on the axle, also removing your shock mounts, which is why they say only for use with the Evo Lever. If you have fab skills you can make it work, I was able to make it work with shocks and springs, I took it to Bubba at exodus jeeps to refab the shock mounts when I upgraded to bolt on coil overs

I believe EVO does make a bracket now that will work. But you still have to cut the lower control arm/shock mount off and weld the new one on. Best advice is to call them and ask.

I can’t remember if this is the final version of what we built on Benito’s but it kind of gives you an idea. The benefit of the high clearance kit is more for the frame mounts than that axle mounts, in my opinion anyways.
