There is an adujuster nut that you should be able to loosen to adjust the linkage. YOUR LIFT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH the binding issue.. it is your t-case drop

Yeah i got it and It works great. Just so you know the instructions say it doesn't work on an AX-15. I thought i had and AX-15 so i was worried but it fit fine so i guess i don't. Good Luck!
