King 2.5 Rears - Shocks Rubbing Frame

Long time lurker, first time poster. A month ago, I installed King 2.5s (no adjusters) on all 4 corners. So far they ride great, especially in the bad roads of the northeast.

 

I took my first long trip since installing this weekend and crawled under the truck to check if everything was still in good working order. I found that on the driver side rear, there is some rubbing of the shock on the frame (when compressed) and of the reservoir on the wiring harness close to the brake lines. So far, there doesn't look to be any damage to the wiring or the frame/shock (the King sticker rubbed off, but the metal portion doesn't seem too affected). For those with King 2.5s or Fox 2.5s non adjustable (I believe both have their reservoirs on the front), have you faced a similar issue? I won't call myself experienced in installing parts, but I don't really think theres a way to put these in wrong.

 

Really wish I had just gotten shocks with the adjusters where the reservoirs are on the rear and not had to worry about this or cutting the brake line bracket.
