Suspension Lift problem with front shocks

[metafizx]

Hi,

I had a Suspension lift installed in my 2WD Toyota pickup ('94) a number of years ago. ( I think it was Rancho, but not sure now)

Today I changed out the shocks (Rancho RS5136) in the front, and noticed that the shock body hits the frame in one spot. These are the same shocks that were previously installed. It's hitting on the lower arm stop that is welded to the frame.

I guess when they installed the suspension kit and the larger shocks, the mounting is not quite adequate and causes this problem.

Is there some sort of offset bracket available to solve this problem ? Or is there some other way to fix it ?

thanks in advance for your help...

I'd say, first make for sure you have the right shocks, then make sure there wasn't a un-installed piece in the kit, if both are a "no", then just fab one up. If you don't have the materials, a machine shop or something of the like should be able to help you. If it has been on there for years, might not be a problem, or maybe the stock bracket is slightly bent, but that's my $.02
