It came up super high off my tire because I simply placed it where it would be if you could use the intended mounting holes.

Clearly it needs new holes drilled, so those would be placed higher up the brace, thus lowering it closer to the tire.
If you get the chance, measure the center to center spacing between the set of small round hole that are one row up from the bottom, and the width of the brace itself up about that point. That information will be a big help to those thinking about seeing if they want to try to make it work.
