Default Fox 2.0 Coilovers & BDS upper control arm installation issues


I ordered a pair of Fox 2.0 coilovers and BDS upper control arms for my 2013 F-150 running a 6” Rough Country lift. I had the shop install for parts but they came across a problem where the shock was hitting the spindle. My wheel backspacing is 4.77” so it falls under the tolerance of 5.50” for the upper control arms. What could be the issue here?

That looks strange. The angle on your UCA looks way off. Is that at full lock or with the wheel straight?

It could just be the picture, but where is the RC 6" strut spacer? It's not easily visible in the photo. Did they remember to put it on top of the Fox 2.0?

Is this at full droop, or just sitting on the ground parked?
