I'd call the maker of that drop bracket. That just aint right. What if you go off road and start getting some real axle travel out of it? It could do a lot worse than just rub. I was running mine through a ditch the other day with one front and one rear wheel clean off the ground. That would have broke something on yours.

It took me three months to get that drop bracket from Skyjacker, their service sucks. I will not be calling them.

I understand. I probably wouldn't either. It really sounds like they sent you the wrong one though. Or some improvised crap! This is why I hate lift kits. While aligning a few of them I cussed so bad that I burst blood vessels in my eye. Seriously.
