I slept on it last night and came up with the following...

Space the steering arm out away from the spindle. About 3/16" would yield me a total of 1/4" clearance which is probably enough. If the tie-rod still doesn't fit I could swap to a rod end style, e.g. Baer Tracker style end which I think will yield more clearance.

If I do the bump steer kit then I wouldn't need to worry about the TruTurn center link or the potential header clearance issue. I like the TruTurn setup better though.

I also think I have the longest steering arms available. May try the shorter version and see what that does.
