i have a 2010 f150 with a zone 6" lift, the lift uses longer struts in the front. no spacers or coilovers. my question is can i use the camburg upper control arms on my lift or will they rub the spring? prob gonna add a daystar 1" spacer while its apart.

They should not rub the spring, except maybe under full deflection, do your wheels have the proper offset so that your tires will clear them? If possible can you post a pic of your current setup.

You'll definitely need to know the offset to figure out if the arms will work.

The offset should not matter because you are lifted. The point where the uca connects to the spindle is much higher then the wheel or tire. You need to worry about the wheel offset and new uca when you are stock height.

While that is true if the offset is really positive around where the stock wheel is he can have still rubbing issues off the tire hitting the arm.

You should be fine, but check your wheel back space. I plan on upgrading to them here soon

In that case you should be okay, but still knowing the offset would never hurt.
