I am using a Howe tall ball joint on an AFX spindle so that may not happen in your case but watch for it depending on the wheel makers lip. It will also really start to cut into your turning radius if you don't do other mods.
This is a pic of a friends wheel off his vette on my car with a spacer in between to keep it from hitting on the upper ball joint.
Wow that is close! What upper arm is that?

Its a SPC adjustable arm I bought from SC&C. The wheels I bought with the 5.4" bs have more clearance then that photo but only about a 1/2 " or so.
