Rubbing Thingy

[MarineHawk]

So, what’s the metal thingy (sway bar?) that goes over the tie rods and connects to a vertical rod that connects below to the larger metal thingy that goes under the tie rods? Anyway, that’s what my tires are rubbing on, not the wheel well. I get the impression that PhilD is correct when he said that it’s the width not the diameter that causes the rubbing. I’m not sure it’s going to help much raising the t-bars, though I’ll probably raise them a little for clearance anyway. Question: Will the rubbing at slow speed damage the aforementioned top metal thingy? Anything else?
