That story is terrible. I'm glad to hear your daughter survived and both of you are doing well. I'm not sure I could handle something like that.
I can’t confirm this is an issue, but your track bar is mounted where you’re stabilizer should be. Track bar mount is the where the lower two holes are, assuming someone drilled a second hole.
The rear spring bend might be a not centered axle. Is your rear track bar attached?
Thats correct on a stock setup however, when u have an adjustable track bar it moves up, at least my bds track bar does as it has a slight bend that wont allow it to b on the bottom anymore. It all moves up. My stabilizer is on a bracket to stop it fro hitting the steering link and binding up.
Yes on the rear track bar. I just need to lengthen my rar lower control arms to relieve the bend. Gonna do that tomorrow.
You still have an oem design, just aftermarket parts. Your track bar and drag link are not in line as mentioned, even if you replace the DPA with a stock one, you may still have the same issue.
I have adjustable track bar/Currie and no binding at all, I don’t see why BDS would design it that way.
My concern wasn’t the aftermarket parts, it’s where they are located, yours is the first I’ve ever seen with a track bar mounted in the stabilizer mount.
When i get home ill snap a pic and show ya what im talking abouy. My track bar has a bend in the end to move it up. If i keep it where it was factory, its at a wierd angle and ya cant get the bolt thru.
Is the mount for the stabilizer strong enough to hold the trackbar?
Anyone else here running BDS confirm the trackbar is supposed to be mounted to the stabilizer mount?

Hey! Take a picture of your front pinion and front drive shaft from the side like you did for the rear. You have a double cardan front shaft which should have a 0-1 degree driveshaft to pinion angle. If you are at say 2-3 degrees you can increase your caster by adjusting your upper front control arms shorter. This should help along with the other suggestions here.
As for your rear spring bend. Just increase the length of your upper and lower rear arms by the same amounts. (say 3 turns upper arms and 3 turns lower arms ect). This will push the rear axle back more. Make sure you have clearance for the rear track bar and gas tank. Also make sure your drive shaft is long enough.
