I have gaffrig switchable mufflers on mine and the tie bar hit when it was mounted to the top of theplate that's bolted to the drive. I pulled the bolt out and mounted it to the bottom side. Works fine

Yes, that I know. For some odd reason was thinking when in fully trimmed position, not trailered trim.
Have you considered the tie bar that mounts at the rams?
