Upper control arms hitting/laying against the coil bucket.

Dusty-92 · Jun 1, 2017

I've got a 2012 ram 1500 2wd that i recently Installed a 3" leveling kit on.
Now my upper control arms are hitting/laying against the coil bucket.
Would anyone know if the mevotech uca's would give me the clearance I need? Or would I need to spend a ton more money on othe uca's.?
Would anyone recommend anything?

This is after your tires are back on and the truck is on the ground?

Yes, this is everything bolted back together and tires on the ground. So let me back up a bit. I had about a half an inch gap in between the uca and coil bucket after I had installed the kit and the tire was back on and on the ground. The truck drove really great but my shocks were maxed out and the ride was a bit bouncy. So I added shock extenders and now the uca is touching the coil bucket. So I wasn't sure if I could get rid of the extenders and by a stiffer shock that's not any longer or if I needed to upgrade the uca.
Sorry for all confusion if any at all.
I also appreciate your feedback along with anyone else's.

Any pics of what's going on?

My guess would be that's just too big of a level kit for a 2wd without running into issues. Did you use coil spring spacers?
