The longer stud didn’t reference the issue. See the attached link.

Not the same picture angle, but you can see the difference. I’d like to make the upper control are more level. Maybe there is another way to achieve it? I did wonder if the ball joint housing was modified to “lower” the ball joint. Lots is stresses for either option and beyond my pay grade to know though.

Stock suspension.


Strut with level kit.


You can see the high offset due to the level. The Freedom Offroad UCA is supposed to help with this.

You can see where it rubs at full droop.
