Upper control arm / spring interference.

Hey fellas. Need a little advice. I installed a 2" spacer up front. I heard some noise in the front when it fully articulates. So I took a look and it seems the UCA and swaybar are making contact with the spring.

Do you think if I rotate the shock 180 degrees than will solve this?

 

No

 

Lol. Thanks for the help.

 

You can put the sway bar relocate spacers to help the sway bar rubbing. The uca on the other hand will need to be replaced with an aftermarket one. With that type of lift you have made the coilover essentially 1” longer and at full droop the coil is in spot that it would normally not be. Thus the rubbing issues.

 

That is the simple explanation, and not getting into suspension angles and droop etc.

 

Ok cool. Thanks. The passenger side is fine though... That's why I was thinking if I rotated the shock it would move the coil spring up a little or down a little. I might try it anyway just for shits and giggles.

 

Keep us posted. Things can vary side to side.

 

Will do and thank you.
