Question about Fabtech 6" lift and coil damage

I just bought an 07 screw with a 6" Fabtech lift. I noticed on both sides up front on the springs it looks like something has or is rubbing on the outside edge of each coil. It isn't substantial but enough to chip a little paint off the furthest outside edge of each coil. I though I saw somewhere where somebody posted that one of the A-arms could be hitting the coils. Is this the problem or is something else going on? Anybody else have this issue?

it could be rubbed from when the truck was lifted on a hoist, i know it stretches the shyte out of the suspension but if thats the case then don't sweat it.

I think maybe I will pop off a front tire and lift one side to full compression to see what happens tomorrow. I hope you are right though.
