Sorry, but it can and does. The stock centerlink rotates, as Phil described earlier, allow for the ends of the center link to move upward. On the PS, the TR is closer to the frame and I noticed on one H2 this weekend that the frame itself STOPPED the centerlink and TR from moving further up and completely failing, in all probability, even though it was a beefy upgraded TR.

We have been suspecting this to be the case for a while now, but I actually saw the rotation of the stock centerlink on Phil's truck, even though he has the Fabteck Tie Rods and the Cognito steering supports. I have both also and have a light scrub on the PS frame where the tie rod boot lightly brushed the underside of the frame.
