[QUOTE="machoheadgames, post: 434104, member: 18789"] Yes, you didn't notice it before because you lifted the Jeep at the same time so you never got the rub. Now you've got your steering reach back to stock but with the larger tires, so you feel it. It's as if you threw on 33's on a stock rig but with 4" of vertical clearance now. You pretty much always feel some rub with 33's or larger unless you use shallower wheels that place the tires further out. The steering stop adjustment is super easy and should fix it completely if it's a light rub. The steering stops are on the front side of the axle, bolted into the steering knuckles. The right side steering stop will be the one you want to limit the left turn rubbing. You should be good after you add a washer under it and screw it back down. [/QUOTE]
