UPPER ARM BEING FLIPPED IS A HUGE PART OF THE PROBLEM - FLIP IT BACK OVER AND RAISE THE MOUNTING POINT WHATEVER AMOUNT THE FLIP MEASURES

the upper arm wasent touched. So their is really no way that its flipped up side down unless they flipped it when i wasent their watching? They are chassi tech spindles we had to flip the ball joint to put them on

the upper is flipped... is it possible to just flip the ball joint and not the uppers?

Take the Chassis Tech shit off your truck, put the factory spindles back on, and set your aligment to specs... you have way to much negative camber set up...

Oh and those cups must not be made for a 99+ fullsize or who ever made them sucks as they are too short. You shouldnt have had to cut off half of what you took off your factory perch.

It will lay out just fine and you should have no rubbing...

i can still lay with stock spindles?

ok well i figured out the problem, it was the cup and also the spring perch, thats all going and we are putting just an upper bag bracket to the frame, if any one has any ideas id like to know. also thanks to everyone who helped its greatly appriciated.

I have lower cups and slamspcialty bags, with a plate welded off the frame for the top. The kit came from extensive. I have belltech spindles which actually requires you to flip the upper A- arms and they still dont rub the bags. Iam laying on 22s. I think you need to ditch the upper bag cups that bolt to the shock mounts and make you a bag mount off the frame, as close as possible to the frame. Also slam bags get smaller when aired up, instead of swelling which also helps. Good luck.
