All you have to do to position the stabilizer right is make sure the piston is extended about 1/4" out at FULL compression of the stabilizer. Simple enough.

My thought is to just flip the tie rod bracket around. should have better clearance.
I don't know if that would work with the stock axle mount though.

The method I gave will work with ANY stabilizer, no matter the brand. A blind man could set it up using that method.
