Default Rock Krawler HD Tie Rod with 16" rims?

Anybody have the RK Tie Rod with 16" rims?

Their current instructions call for OEM ends from the drop pitman arm and 17" rims with 4.5" backspackng.

I have Procomps with good backspacing, but they're of the 16" flavor. When I look behind the wheel, seems like there would be plenty of space.

Thanks for any help!

Called RK. S/W Chris. Very helpful.

They have not tested their set up on anything smaller than a 17" rim, so unsure if 16" rim will or will not work.

I have 15" Pro Comps with 3.63" of BS and they work for me.
