I just replaced the rear shocks on my 2007 Ford F250 King Ranch. I had an issue with the passenger side shock. I had to adjust the shock bracket to get my shock to install because it was hitting the sway bar. I was able to get it together but the shock is pressed up against the sway bar. I looked at the old shock and there is a wear mark where it had been pressed agains the sway bar and the sway bar was shiny from where contact had been made. Is this going to be a problem and if so is it a sway bar issue or shock issue. I installed Monroe Reflex and they are the correct shocks for my truck. First post and hoping to get some help from a very knowledgable group of people.

Can you get a picture of the shock and sway bar? I don't know what the underside of an 07 looks like.
