[Fot] TR3 to TR4A ball joint issue

I think you may find the inside edge of the spring pan resting against the spring tower. If that is the case, TR6 spring pans cure the problem since they are a different shape at the back edge.

The ball joints do not allow full extension. I purchased the ball joints from The Roadster Factory. I'm wondering if another suppliers ball joints might allow more movement. It sure doesn't seem good to me that the suspension at full extension should rest against the ball joint. I guess that a taller bumper could be used. Any tips or info on this matter would be appreciated.
