Pretty sure the blue one is from the 2.5 calmini kit and the blacks may be from under body guards...

black ones are for a transfer case bash plate, the single one is for the rear crossmember behind the transfer case & the other 2 are for the transfer crossmember.

the blue one "looks" like it could be a raised rear load proportioning valve bracket. :?

Thought the black ones were for the bash plates can you pm me some pics of how yours are mounted i have the same ones you have. I should probably look into using that raised rear load proportioning valve bracket breaks are important :!:
hmm just looked at the kits picture and that bracket doesnt seem to be in it...and my breaks have still worked with the extended break line. Maybe for another zook? like the drop bracket i go for the XL7 from them?

there is a spring that connects to the diff & the valve, it' adjusts rear bias when it's loaded/unloaded... i'm not that familiar with the rear of the GV's but i'm sure it would be to reposition the spring that's attached to the diff & the valve & i'm pretty sure not all parts in the calmini pics are shown.

i don't think i've got pics, but the 2 brackets go over the transfer case crossmember & the bash plate bolts to them & the single one goes over the tube crossmember BEHIND the transfercase & with the plate attached it clamps the crossmember... go outside & offer them up, should be pretty straight forward. :wink:
