What size wheels? The control arms need to be trimmed to clear depending on the wheel size. I had a 91 years ago and had to do this for the 15" wheels.

Just started putting new front end back together on 89 rcsb.I installed McGaughy's 2" drop coils and 2" drop spindles. The problem is that when I let the lca down you can not turn spindle, it is hitting uca. I know it will not hit when I put wheels back on and put on ground.But is this normal with drop spindles? Or do I have a problem I need to fix now?

My mistake,i trimmed the lca's.It's not the wheels are hitting.The truck is up on stands while I put the front end back together.The upper control arm is hitting the top of the spindle when I let the lca down off jack.You can not move it without picking up on lca a little.This is my first drop and I did not know if this was normal or not.
It's normal at full droop.
Thanks. Just didn't seem right.
