Fox 2.5 DSC install questions/install

Adding pic of alignment specs, also noticed this morning I have UCA rub on passenger side at full lock left. This is with 255/70/18 so kind of wondering what I should do. I hate wheel spacers, no offense to wheel spacer users.
Emailed JBA for advice, will see what he says.

I'm running the close to the same size tire- 255/80/17 cooper st maxx (tires are same width but mine are ~1" taller) and I also have JBA High caster UCA's I don't have any issues rubbing the UCA but I DO hit the body mount as I haven't chopped it yet. Some options for you since you mention you don't like wheel spacers..
1. I don't know if you mentioned this but switch to aftermarket wheels with slight negative offset. My wheels are a 17x9 with -12mm offset. This still keeps them inside the widest part of the fender when tires are pointed straight.
2. This one I'm less sure about Add 1/2" top plate spacers to both sides of the front ( im not sure on compatibility with fox but they worked with my billies.) but with that extra lift you MAY also need a diff drop
 
The JBA’s are notorious for rubbing on tires with stock wheels. You’ll need either spacers or after market wheels.

Well that kind of sucks. I thought I was ok based on notes from the JBA's site. I checked full lock the other direction and it's pretty much the same.
I suppose full lock situations are somewhat rare and usually low speed. I could try to live with it and see how often it happens. Wheels aren't really in the budget.

Tire sizes that work well with the JBA UCAs

265/75R16 tire 31.6" x 10.4" on factory wheels

255/75R17 tires 32.1" x 10" on factory wheels

275/65R18 tires 32.1" x 10.8" on factory wheels

Any tire that is 32" diameter and smaller there is no fitment problem.
