Post subject:  Need some advice, after lift trouble

Hi all, I just finished fitting my Tonylift, which is basically an OME coil lift with some extra ingredients.

Now at full droop it cannot reach full lock on the steering, the tie rod ends are scraping against the stabilizer bar.

Anyone ever changed left to right / right to left to get more clearance?

I was planning on fitting my JKS quick disconnects but that pushes the stabilizer bar even higher making my problem worse. So they are still in the box..until I know if I can swap out the tie rod ends....

Wonder how you Frankenlift guys have this. :?

I waived goodbye to full steering lock some time ago. I think the only way to achieve this is to go back to stock.

Weird, I haven't had this problem at all...

Or maybe I haven't noticed.

Tony, I had my wifes KJ up in the air this Sunday and didn't notice any problem w/ the steering. Can you post up some pics?

Did you have it realigned after installation? I would like to compare what you are seeing to mine and maybe i'll get pics too...if it stops raining.

Yeah, now there's an idea, it needs an alignment badly, the tires are slanting inward on the bottem (negative camber) so the LCA's need to be pushed outward...

Let's try that first!
