We had a customer run 7" Slam bags that he got from a friend up front on his Mazda a couple years ago, but I don't think he make enough clearance for steering, as he was back the next week for some 6" models! It might be possible, but a 6" Slam will get you more lift than your AirLifts without the clearance issues.

do you have drop spindles? if you do the upper arm is hitting the spindle before you max out the bag. Happened to me and a few others.

A 6 inch slam will get higher than smokey in deebo's pigeon coop though.

could that still be the problem even if i have different (non-stock) upper control arms?

dunno, I guess look and see. Or take a picture.

Yeah, let's see some pics. It's tough to fit a 6" bag in the front of a Mazda with out it rubbing. I don't think a 7" will work for you, dude.

Check the placement of your upper bag mount...If the bag is fully compressed when your truck is layed out then your stuck but if not move the bracket down. Well not stuck but this won't apply.
