it won't.
run either a notched lca
or a tube style rosejointed lca.
you could how ever be very close to binding the rack up, so you may also need to move the rack.
Do people install them to remedy my situation? or do they do it because they literally run out of rack travel?
how is extending the amount of rack travel going to stop my tierod from hitting the lca?
is it going to change the pivot point of the tierod enough to pull it away?

are your lca's bent? how much castor are you running? did this happen all of a sudden? it really doesnt make sense. either your lca's are bent and hitting your steering arm, which they really shouldnt be close with your setup or your flux capacitor needs looking at

Move the rack foward.
Notch LCA
Build tubular LCA
you guys are getting way ahead of yourselves..
with PS arms being the only lock mod, knuckles should not be hitting control-arm. There's something else in this
As Dave and Johl asked, how much castor?
Exactly my thoughts man. hence the confusion.
Castor is pulled as far forward as the stock rods will go... bumper had to be trimmed and i get a bit of rub on the front of flared but untrimmed guards.
Did some more testing... seems i was getting myself mixed up with the rack travel.... gets to just under 1.6 turns each way so yer i'm not missing out on too much provided its a regular rack... tie rod issue still inhibits extending rack travel thoug obviously.
Photo bomb!!

looks like he's loaded the suspention up with the jack.
i only read the second part haha.
just check for damage. get the measuring tape out. check mount, crossmembers, pull rack boots off see if you don't have a sneaky spacer or anything. check for straightness.
if you're sure they shouldn't be hitting then there must be damage or incorrect parts.
im not really sure how much room there should be. but mine don't hit with 90mm knuckles
i think you have a freak rack. have you ever seen the rack. you may have one of brett (purple sr hachi) old ones that they 'modified' with an angle grinder for more teeth?
