Anyone ever notice this odd shape in the fender well? I thought it may have just been for some strengthening.

For the upper control arm to move this far up, the top of the tire will go a couple inches into the fender. I doubt the shock will allow this much movement. It could just be a coincidence that the ball joint fits here. I had raised the control arm to get it out of the way.
