    Is it me or is the UCA drooping more in the first photo (driver side spacer installed) vs second photo (pass side spacer not installed)? I moved the hub assembly a bit when fishing out the coil/strut. Did the axle come out?

    Any help appreciated...

    This is how lifting your truck works. You force the control arms down to achieve a lift.

    It will droop more because you just pushed the lower control arm down farther away from the point the UCA is mounted at.
