Steering Stabilizer & Track Bar Contacting

[littlem1990]

Hello - Recently had a shop install a Yeti adjustable track bar and Fox steering stabilizer 2.0 along with a Mopar 2 inch lift. Have an issue where the track bar seems to be contacting the stabilizers during turns/articulation (see pictures attached). Have searched around and not seeing others with this issue, and this combination of parts seems quite common. Any idea what might be causing?

I’m not sure but probably the pinch bolt , you may consider relocating the stabilizer it will stop this, and be up out of harms way , win win…..

Hadn't thought of that, thank you! I see that Steersmarts makes a part just for that!

Yeah, you’ll need a tie rod clamp for the other end, if you have the stock tie rod, you’ll need the 1-5/8” clamp……
Synergy sells it as a kit, and it’s cheaper….but there’s a lot of different options…..

I used the steersmart one, you have to drill a hole, but otherwise, easy install, and no interference. I have the mopar lift as well

I think I am going to go with your recommendation, realizing that the Smart Steer version does not work with the stock tie rod: https://steersmarts.com/collections...ng-stabilizer-relocation-bracket-axle-side-jk

You can also buy the clamp separately, if you like the SS axle side bracket better, (and some people do) then you can buy just the clamp from synergy or whichever brand for the tie rod just about all brackets will work with all clamps….The only brand I suggest buying both axle side bracket and tie rod clamp together is Metal Cloak… they raise the Stabilizer a little so the bolt on their tie rod clamp is slightly angled to match…..
