I haven't paid attention to what size tire you're running, but I can bind my u-joints with 35" tires before they even come close to the leaf springs. As long as your lower mounts are around that area you shouldn't have too much interference troubles unless your going real big.

You can get your yokes clearanced to allow around 45* of steering angle, but it seemed to be a somewhat specialized process that people send axles out to have done.

Nope.... I've personally never even seen them. However, I've ran across a few threads in the past of guys using them.
