Same issue here, shock touching the upper control arm and mangled bump stop thingy. I just put new upper ball joints on with new shocks and stabilizer rods. Put it all back together and the camber is now off by a mile. So the wheels off again, gonna try n move the cams on the upper control arm to see if it makes it better.
However, before all this, the torsions bars were maxed out, no adjustment left on the bolts, front suspension was non existent. So now hopefully i'll have suspension that works, trying to adjust the cams right now, probably need alignment after all this. Pain in the ring!!
With the wheel off, the upper arm is jammed against the new shock so somethings definitely not quite right.
