Default Front diff cover with RK lift

I need a new front diff cover.
Will the ARB front diff cover interfere with my RK tie rod, drag link or trac bar?
I called RK and they weren't sure.
Anyone running this combination?
Thanks.

It will interfere with the trackbar. I have a nice mark on mine haha. Doesn't hurt anything though.

Interesting, I wonder if other covers would do the same thing?

No issue with my Riddler covers. I havent heard of any clearance issues with other covers. Maybe those having issues don't have everything aligned properly??

I installed my PSC because I had clearance issues with one from Taboo Customs.

I have a RK 2.5 lift with Riddler cover (same as PSC) up front. No problem at all. I have a Synergy tie rod though.
