I have a 2005 4.6 liter 2 wheel drive. I put a spacer on top of the shocks in the front. Everything was going great untell I replaced the upper control arms and the lower ball joint. Parts from ford. Now the top of the knuckle is hitting the spring when I go over bumps. And I also replaced the front shocks to bilstiens. I think the shocks gave the truck a little more lift. It is sitting 39'' in the front and 38'' in the rear. Measurement was taken from the top of the fender openning to the ground front and back. Any ideas would help

what do you mean exactly did you put a leveling kit on? if so what size and brand i know that certain kits dont have the built in offset to correct this problem i know autospring leveling kits have an offset in the spacer to eliminate that

I am not too sure what the kit is. I had a local tire shop put it on for me. All I can remember is that it is about a 2.25'' leveling kit

So what you are saying is that the offset will push the shock back closer to the frame rail? And if that is so how far should the upper control arm be aiming down. Looks to me it is aiming down alot

Still need help
