I'm curious about the Jeep Tie Rod ends solution? I have a '32 front axle which drops the front about 1.5 inches, but on sudden bumps, the tie rod taps the chassis and I haven't found a solution to dropping the tie rod 1.5 inches? Any other suggestions that doesn't include goose necking the tie rod?
