I'm not sure what a bracket vs. T bar kit is but I believe I have the bracket type. It's like on your (Erik's) web site where the beam complex that the lower A arms attach to is duplicated and plugs into the lower A arm attachment points. Additional ball joint spacers are then bolted on the top of the steering knuckle.

On my lift kit at least, the attachment points of the tie rods on the steering knuckles are lowered compared to stock because the additional distance between the A arms due to the lift is made up by putting spacers on top of the steering knuckles.
