Looks like the spring is hitting the rear track bar bracket bolt. What's the best fix for this? Any advice appreciated. Thx.

 

Not that I am a mechanic by any stretch of my imagination. Couldn't you take that bolt out and put it back in the opposite way. ( head of bolt to spring and threads / nut towards the shock being that the head of the bolt is shallower it shouldn't hit the spring ).
Just an idea.

 

Do you have adjustable control arms? You could adjust your control arms to give a little clearance or an easier option, which I did on mine, was a set of spring correction wedges. In my case it took enough of the bowing of the springs out so it wouldn't hit the track bar.

 

I'll try to reverse the bolt may just work, How hard is it to get the wedge perches in place ? Do you need a spring compressor?
thx

 

That sounds like a quick easy attempt to fix to me, judging by the pic, this could be worth a shot

 

Wedge perches aren't difficult. The ones I have are from rough country. Easiest way is on a lift. Then support the axle, disconnect your shocks and drop the axle till your springs are loose enough to slip them under your springs. Then jack up the axle and reconnect shocks. There are other wedges that replace your factory spring perches, etc, but I personally didn't want to cut out my factory ones and weld in new ones. This worked for me.

 

Thanks doc. I'll order some.

 

Try twisting the springs, also your rubber bushing above the spring could slughtly be off centered, try moving that bushing till theres clearance.

 

I have the same clunk, will check this weekend. Try rotating the spring. Thanks.

 

I have the spring correction wedges as well. I think you'll want to get a set of spring retainers as well to make sure you don't lose the wedges at full flex. They were recommended to me and it made sense. I use the JKS rear coil spring retainers, but I've heard of folks just using hose clamps.
