I had this issue with a 4" Procomp lift also. The RK correction wedges fixed it for me. $25 cheap fix.

As I said before, rotating the trackbar will do nothing to fix the issues. I would get the Evo Plush Coils instead of whatever you have. They are 5" wide and feel incredible!

Think that's the route I am going to go with thinner coils. I measured mine and they r like 7 inches so I think a thinner coil and spring perches will do the trick. Thanks for all the help!

The Outside Diameter of the rear EVO Plush rides coils are just a hair over 5".

Have you trimmed the pinch seam? Just cut that protruding corner off, or bend it over with a big hammer.

Small bodied coils should do the trick for you like we offer.

The pinch seems have nothing to do with this issue. The pinion angle due to the lift is causing the coils to bow and interfere with the TB. He needs to correct his coil perch angle with correction wedges or weld new ones on.
