What brand trackbar? I have a Superlift trackbar, jamnut is on axle end. Mine doesn't hit anything, BUT, I really need to add a drop pitman and frame side drop bracket for the trackbar, it'll probably hit then. Cpray on here has an RE4.5 longarm, his hits like a mofo.

yeah, there are a lot of people who have had clearance issues especially if you have a track bar relocation bracket installed on the frame end.

I have the Rough Country Dual SS and have had some contact at the right stabilizer and the drag link pinch bolts. Also at the very end of the left stabilizer and the drag link.

The only evidence of the contact is the scratches in the stabilizer finish, no noticeable issues with steering.
