Is it a SCREW? I think I have read a few posts around here where the crash bars they put on the SCREWs need to be moved for extra clearance when lifted.

Yes its a SCREW. and even if its only 2.5 inches? Its pretty much stock besides the leveling.

Check the 3 bolts on top of your struts, front sway bar. Check Upper Control Arm bolts, bolts on your bottom of the struts under your Lower CA.

Doesn't that happen when you bust your electric steering deal?

Have someone turn the wheel while you poke your head under there. Pin point it instead of guessing

Have you tried putting it in 4wd to see if there is any issue with the IWE. Does it clunk going into or out of 4wd?
