While trying to achieve a flatter less steep tie rod angle, I have achieved additional wheel travel.
My solution for tie rod angle was to use RC uprights or knuckles. These have a tie rod mount 4" higher up allowing the tie rod to remain flat in a lifted truck.
I've already shaved my bump stops and dropped the diff 1.5"...and with 2 " lift spacers I've gained 2" of droop over stock.
I did have Fabtech UCAs installed and they limit the travel, hit the coil springs, rub on the tired and have LESS angle available in the uniball than the OEM UCAs ball joint. So I put the OEM arms back on.
Here are some pics of the wheel travel.
