Anyone have the single Rancho steering stabilizer?
I'm looking for a picture of the setup. I followed directions to a T (I thought) but I have some rubbing going on. Can anyone snag me a photo of their Rancho stabilizer?
P.s. I'm talking about the regular, single one (not high clearance). I think it's the RS5000 (Part no. RS-5407)

I had that setup but now run the relocation where it flips it. That problem rings a bell though. Did the mount maybe get pushed out farther?

I'm going to pull the whole thing off and take a look at it tonight. It's actually been on there for over a year now. I wasn't able to figure out the problem at the time so I thought maybe taking a fresh look at it will help.
Since then, rubbing has worn away a nice little chunk of metal on the stabilizer itself. A superficial wound only, however.
I'll probably have to do the same as you - relocate the axle mount.

You don't have enough lift to clear your drag link so any flex jams it into your steering stabilizers. You need taller coils or put your stabilizer back to stock.
As for the OP, is your tie rod bent at all? I'm guessing you had no problems with the stock stabilizer but a bent rod, even a little could jam up things. Maybe pics would help if you can post some.
