I have 814’s and just added super atv arched arms and when I went to install the shocks they are hitting at bottom. I turned them over and now hit at top. Am I missing something or has someone else ran into this issue. Been reading for an hour thru the search tab. Found all other kinds of info but nothing on this so am wondering if I’ve done something wrong. Thanks in advance.

I took about 3/16 to a 1/4 off to get them to clear.
They look fine to me in the pics. What am I missing?
Whats hitting?
Are u using a bracket lift combined with the arms by chance? Hard to tell in your pics

No bracket lift. Stock mounts hit the shock. I didn’t see where it would hurt to remove some material on the mounts so I took some off. The shocks sit at a slight angle forward now so I think that was just enough to make them hit. All is good now. We took it out yesterday afternoon rode over to the winery had lunch and came back. Only thing I noticed was the turning radius but I read different threads stating that would change. Didn’t realize how loose the front end was til all the new parts went on. lol.
