Default Full Integra DA Disc brake conversion! Help --> Upper Control arms (UCA) are hitting fender

I have a problem with my set up. I just spent the last few days putting on the full integra disc brake conversion. I have a problem with the front UCAs hitting the fender!

My setup:

- Koni Yellows with HR race springs (2" Drop)
- Ebay camber kit with CRX UPPER CONTROL ARMS
- integra front knuckles

WHAT is your setups?! SO i can determine whats wrong?

Maybe i have to adjust the camber kit to work....

HELP!

No camber kit, I used the stock UCAs, I don't know exactly how much of a drop it is but it's not slammed.

P.S. It said your PMs are disabled.

dont feel to bad with camber adjusters for arms on stock front. my arms come within a 1/8 inch. i trimmed the lip inside about 3/8 inch and it clears better.

i fixed it with the camber kit. But the arms are slanted upwards quite agressively....
it probably has a few inches before it hits the top!

anyways i just need an alignment and fix the steering and i hope itll drive like a champ!

I still need to change the prop valve since the bolts were a bit rounded and tough to break loose!
