Steering stabilizer shorter than stock?

I put the stabilizer mount on top of the JKS over axle trackbar bracket, but with the OTK flip, the stabilizer bottoms out to one side.

Has anyone found a shorter stabilizer to run, i.e. the canister is shorter so the rod can retract more?
 
with your modifications it sounds like your stabilizer is now off center, and if you get a shorter one it might limit your steering range. with the steering centered, relocate one of the stabilizer mounts so its shaft is halfway extended.
 
That's going to be hard to do when the hole in the draglink is permanent and the mount is on top of the trackbar bracket. Any further to the passenger side and it runs into the coil spring.

Does anyone have a source for a compatible stabilizer with a shorter cannister?
 
If thats the case then why not just use a universal damper and mount(drag link side)!
