Steering component issue...

Hey all,
I have a mostly stock unlifted 2001 XJ sport 4wd with Dana 30/35. A couple weeks ago I replaced my stock steering linkage with the heavy duty rugged ridge kit. Now the passenger side tie rod end is rubbing the tire/wheel on that side at full lock left turn. It seems that the after market rod end is bigger and at a different location than stock. What are my options to correct this without rebuilding the linkage? Lift kit? Larger diameter wheels? Thanks.
 
He's probably rubbing at full lock on the drag link tre where it attaches to the tie rod. The rugged ridge steering has a bent passenger tre for diff clearance.
