    Right but I am spacing the control arms farther apart, and it's a stiffer ride all together. The LCA and UCA are technically farther apart after the install so I have reason to believe the UCA is traveling higher than it did before

    I think you have something else clicking. I don't think that UCA touching the "mud flap" for lack of better word that is attached to the inner fender well would make a noise. Spring not turned right, shock loose or anything along those lines.
