    I installed a 2in front spacer on my 2006 Tacoma 2 weeks ago. I went back to make sure everything was still properly torqued and while jacking the truck up on the passenger side I noticed that the UCA and coil were contacting when it was fully extended. This is only on the passenger side and not the driver's side. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem and/or knew what might be causing it. Thanks in advance!

    Side note.

    Torque application of pivot points needs to be done in compression, not droop.

    Done in droop bushings will bind when loaded and eventually self destruct.

    It’s the spacer causing it to make contact.
