Not an excellent photo, but here is mine right after installing V codes in the front. There is only 1" between the shackle and the frame. No sign it has ever hit the frame.

Note that there is an arch on the spring but I still have about 3 inches of travel on the shock before it hits the bump stop.

If you are measuring with fender flares on then you could be 1/2 to 3/4" higher than what you are measuring depending on the brand and how thick they are

I was able to install the zone 1" shackles. Got rid of my rubbing finally! Lol. Took 3" of lift. They are 35x12.5R20 on 20x10" rims with 5" backspacing. Now on to adding shims to get the pinion angles right and get the rear suspension finalized.

I took off my fender flares before starting and it did measure 26.5". It appears the springs "looking like that" is normal after install. Know it measures in at 27.5".

Thank all of you for your help. It is greatly appreciated.
