If you can't go through it or around it, then go over it.

seems to be a common problem

yes, or build a K-link steering.

tune your TTB and build a modified K-link, and limit down travel.

yes the camber can be adjusted, get longer radius arms.

Get the extrem drop pitman arm from Skyjacker. I got the more expensive on the 6-8'' one. Since you only lifted yours 4'' you probably need the cheaper on the 4-6'' drop pitman arm. The 4-6'' one is about $100 cheaper than the 6-8'' one.

Yeah, you need a drop pitman arm.
A standard drop pitman arm should work adequately on a 4" lift.
