I was wondering if it was a rock or from the stress of going wider with the Hiluxs on the Zuk steering stuff
In this case, I don't believe Tims tie rod hits either the draglink or pitman arm. His Tie rod is the standard Hilux unit, so it's technically fine (although now bent due to driver/rock abuse and should be replaced), the draglink is an aftermarket item which is 'beefed up' appropriately, and I expect should be fine.
do a virtual lift so that i can se how its done. i was contemplating doing a vertual lift and taking the body lift out. mine grabs the front lip where you have trimmed yours so i think i will be trimming mine too

Quit talking about it and just Do It .. its alot of fun .. and you can invite friends (if you have any) to help
