Did anyone ever hear back from @PIG on this issue?

I called a few weeks ago and the person Was not there that they wanted me to talk to. Also they were going to call me back and that also didn't happen.......
Hope they have a fix for this ASAP or I'll be dumping all there stuff and going with a different manufacturer.

That sucks. I called two days ago, was told by the guy that he needed to talk to someone else and would call me back and no call yet. I feel you. Leaning towards a Metalcloak or Rock Krawler part at this point.

I believe they are being very badly hit by COVID and hopeful they make it through all this as would hate to not have their parts on the market any longer.... They make some really unique stuff that nobody else does; or if they do it's a copy.

But I share your frustration they are not getting back to customers on support issues. Try sending PIG a PM on here - that's Dave who is the owner. It shows he was online last night.

Or just email him, not sure how often he checks forums to respond to everything. I emailed him 2 days ago and he responded to me within an hour. [email protected]

They are aware of the issue. They are in the process of making new end forgings for the axle side that extend the forging further to clear the axle mount. They were supposed to be available this month or next.

Shot Dave an email and he did respond. Couldn't answer my diff clearance question but did address the TB issue from this thread. The answer is to trim the factory bracket to accommodate the TB. See the last page of the install instructions.

That would be a viable solution if the bar was hitting the front, but my case the fitment issue is the back of the track bar where no trimming is possible. Actually the front clears the bracket fine on my Jeep.

I just went to install my new Synergy front track bar and ran into the same problem. Unbelievable that they're still selling parts with this issue. I will be calling them tomorrow and returning mine if there aren't updated parts available soon.

Trimming is front and bottom according to this pic

Yeah their supplemental instructions of trimming the front/bottom of the bracket doesn't help with the issues people are seeing in this thread.
Synergy informed me they are still working on an updated part. We'll see.

They advised me that the updated part will not be available until the end of the year due to production backlog.

I guess my options are grinding down the bracket/weld so the track bar clears or send it back and get something like the Metalcloak bar.

Is there a rhyme or reason for the tracbar fitment issue (certain models or years)? I'm looking at a set of Synergy bars for my 2020 JLUR but if it's going to involve cutting I'll look at going with a different company's products.

If its the track bars you're looking at just go with another company. I am now considering Rock Krawler.
