no jam nuts yet. anyone know where to find some 7/8" jam nuts?

Dean at Bent metal customs(local guy). That's where I got mine. Also they are 7/8" 18TPI. Which are very hard to find.

Putting "S" bends will only help for clearance and will not make it work any different.

I wish more people understood this concept...

FWIW when you do that you will have bump-steer.
Technically you want the track rod that the drag link parallel.
This is not that important if it ain't a DD.

actually it is important since you can lose your ability to steer full left to right through suspension cycle. the trac bar needs to be the same length and angle as the draglink. the pics make it look shorter. of your worried about getting around the coil you can run it at a slightly forward angle. I would put more drop pitman arm on it and drpo the frame end of the mount as nessasary to match. move the axle end to where it needs to go.
