Question pitman damaging trans lines

So I'm laying around under the jeep and notice that my pitman arm is rubbing the transmission coolant lines from the radiator to the transmission. Now I don't have a problem yet but I can forsee an issue alittle later in the future. Has anyone else had or fixed this kind of problem or should I just reeffer this to good ol' mister warranty and have the dealer fixit?

Check if you have a aftermarket trans cooler maybe you just need to reroute the lines.
