Can anyone explain how to fit these steel plates? I'm reading the instructions they gave but it isn't clicking. Two FK10's came as part of the suspension kit for a front solid axle.

That looks to me like gussets for the spring perches on the front axle. I believe they are supposed to brace the perches to keep them from distorting as you tighten the U-bolts. I actually gusseted mine with some scrap as I was preparing to do my SAS, this is what they looked like (also shows the mods required to fit up a front E-locker):

I just bought all new OME stuff for mine last Fall and the ARB sales guy told me to not worry about them.

X2 on what KLF said. Pretty common for them to give you a plate to make the driver side level with the passenger

Great. Thank you. The pictures make everything so much clearer. I'll probably leave them off unless there is distortion when I tighten the U-bolts.
