Default Left Front Sway Bar Link Rubs and Squeaks

I have a 2" Rubicon Express Budget lift kit installed. The link on the left side is rubbing the frame slightly causing a squeak when I hit a bump. I thought maybe my sway bar may be bent but discovered that others have had this problem.

Any ideas on how to fix to eliminate the constant annoying squeak?

Replace the bushing.

Check toi see that the lift has not shifted the front axle over any. Mine was rubbing hard with 3" and I had to install an adjustable track bar to eliminate the problem.
