RideTech Shocks Question

Finally bit the bullet and bought some single adjustable RideTechs (Fox) shocks. So I've installed some new lower control arms and spindles. So with the truck on the lift and front suspension at full droop, the shocks won't fit (not long enough). These are the correct size shocks for my ride height for sure and I can compress the suspension till they line up (fully extended)......BUT i don't think I want the shock to act as the stop for the suspension to fully droop......I imagine it's not built for that and will f up my shock.......any insight and solutions. I'm figuring I will need to find a bump stop to install on underside of the upper control arm?
Thanks.....Jim
