Is the UCA only hitting the coil spring when the suspension is at full droop?

Yes at full droop. Yes coil over shocks and struts are basically the same thing but factory ones are struts. I looked on their website and it said there is supposed to be a 1/4 offset and mine are flat.

They will make contact at full droop. It shouldn't happen while driving unless you get air born.

Still waiting on my tires to wear out so I've been replacing all my lights with LED's. Fog, front turn signals, third brake light and put the stock looking ANZO LED tail lights to get rid of that chrome crap. Also put LED bed lighting in. So nice when trying to get stuff out of the bed at night.
