Tire rubbing ball joint grease fitting, rim rubbing upper control arm

I didn't get up the shop today to take any pics. I had a malfunction with old dental work and a hard pretzel. Tonight there is a new space in my mouth where a molar once was. I did call my buddy and have him try to measure the backspace though. He didn't have a straight edge the width of the rim so this is a guestimate. It's either 4.5" or 4.75". That would bring the tire and wheel closer to the control arm and ball joint. I did think about wheel spacers, but would rather not have to go that route. I will if I have to though.
