Mine's a Duff, but I had to bend the rod that engages the fork a few degrees on both shifters to get knuckle (mine) clearance in low range.

My JB t-stlye did that too....I too bent the tab that engages the shift rod(different style, but stock mine also had some binding so I bent the tab which not only fixed the binding I had but also shortened the throw)

MIne came close but did not hit . I did bend mine back and to the right so it wouldnt hit my leg while driving though. Not hard to do

Looking at the position of your sticks they looks to be mounted further up on the tunnel but I'm also running a C-4. Mine clear with pleanty of room

Maybe its your big ol knobs ;D no seriously. Looks like you will need to bend them back a bit, sorry about that. Talk to Jon, maybe he has a suggestion.
