you *shouldn't. if you search on tech you'll find a bunch of people who ran into the exact same thing though. try reinstalling them after calling UMI. they'll tell you to loosen the torque arm bolts and swaybar. then make sure you can get it to line up with any of the 3 holes with no adjusting before bolting it into any 1.

my brackets are wedged agains the stock lca mount, so there's no way it can move back any further. maybe i'll try it again some time but it doesn't look possible to move them back any further.

also, i ordered RPM speed brackets, but they came with UMI directions and hardware, so i'm not 100% sure exactly what i have. maybe the re-installation will work with yours.
