I could be wrong here, but doesn't the tank in the lux's run down one side of the chassis rail. Has been a while since I was under one. Maybe try mounting the wrap bar in a diff location/other side???? As I said... I could be totally wrong!!!!

I had to remove my long ranger in my 60 to get mine put in. It's mounted on the passenger side of the drive shaft.

My wrap bar/track bar runs on the other side of the diff from the fuel tank. It works fine.
