I ran the JKS johnnie jointed HD track bar with 3" OME lift with no issues and that was with a massive RuffStuff Specialties cover. I'm at 5.5" lift now and still no issues.

I have had a couple of people call me and say it was hitting, I suggest they check the toe in and that is always the issue. It seems that alot of people are running with the Toe all out of whack....

I'm at ~3.5" and my JKS TB doesn't contact the stock d30 diff cover. I am running 33/12.5 tires requiring a fair amount of bumpstopping that might be making all the difference.

Come on Dan,how does the 1/16"-1/8" length change of the tie rod going to change its location(up/down/front/rear/etc).These are usually wheelbase issues(location of the axle to the steering box/pitman arm).
