Awesome progress!
I didn't request anything specific for the exhaust routing. Thats just where motec ran it.Is that the "standard" placement for the exhaust when you have them run it behind the driverside tire, or did you request that?
So I’m confused on why these are more prone to contact than others. I’m assuming the tie rod offset is standard, so they have a shorter arm on the casting? Giving up uptravel would suck.Working on front axle adjustments. Bumps hit perfectly center, caster is set at 7. Ended up ordering an adjustable track bar since I'm about 2" farther driver than I'd like.
Checking other clearances my main limfack right now is my drag link contacting my tie rod long before I'm getting to full bump. Gonna be missing out on 2" of up travel the way it sits but I don't see much in the way of doing anything about it. Seems to be a common theme on this axles on their FB group

From what i can tell it's just the fact that the TREs are so large and the tire rod mounts on top of the knuckle. If I was running 40s it would stuff better but really I'm only losing 2 inches. Yeah id like it to be perfect but it's not the end of the world. It's a pretty common problem on their Facebook group people talk about. Some have run straight TREs on the tie rod to off set the alignment, some have run a different tie rod all together. Most just run more bump stop. I guess on a newer knuckle they use they moved the mounting higher and flipped the tie rod to the bottom and that helps.So I’m confused on why these are more prone to contact than others.
