OK, guys what we have here is two different guys with two different lift heights that have two different rubbing problems. You guys really need to be more careful about hijacking another guys' question thread!!!!!!

1.) littleleonard0909 - you'll be first since this was your thread. What I see in your pictures is that you have an after market REALLY beefey tierod with tierods that are much thinker than the OEM tierods that come on an XJ front D30. So, what is happening is taht your much thicker tierod end is hitting the bolt that holds your steering stabilizer in the mount. Not really sure what to do about it. Maybe grind a little on the bolt and the tierod end to make them clear each other. Maybe put some kind of longer steering arms on your knuckles to help your bigger tierod clear everything.

2.) Winston427 - Now, what I see from your pictures is that you are lifted 6.5 inches without a dropped pitman arm on your steering. I know a 6.5 inch lift requires a dropped pitman because one came with the 6.5 inch RC lift we put on my son's XJ. This has caused a more extrme angle on your draglink. which has the tierod end that hooks to your draglink sitting higher and hitting on your sway bar link mount. You need to get a dropped pitman arm for your steering and you'll be good to go.

but with that pitman arm, he will also need to change his track bar to keep the angles parallel

Im thinking it is where my upper control arm are not adjusted right or would that make a different

littleleonard, go with the following adjustments on you control arms for your lift and the caster angle should be perfect for the given amount of lift:

4 inch lift LCA - 16 3/8" UCA - 15"
4.5 inch lift LCA - 16 1/2" UCA - 15"
5 inch lift LCA - 16 5/8" UCA - 15 1/4"

I hope this adjunstment can fix this issue for you.
