98+ IFS Turning Radius

[simpler=better]

Long time lurker here.

I've got a 1998 2WD with the lovely IFS. It rides great, but the turn radius is HORRIBLE. My old '93 2WD could turn on a dime, but the '98 turns worse than an extended cab F350.

Are there any parts I can swap out to get a better turn radius? Different R&P, linkage, etc?

Stock wheels or wheels with more offset? It will make a difference.

I think I've heard of some people grinding the lower control arm to make more room due to rubbing problems. I'll look around and see if I can find anything.

I'm running 15" alloy wheels from a 1989 Ranger, forgot to mention that. The tire OD is spot on-my speedometer matches my GPS within 1mph across the board.

I looked at the control arms, but the hub backing (probably the wrong term) doesn't make it to the factory bump stops.

It's not so terrible I can't live with it (been riding around for 3 years now) but I would like to be able to turn around without going Austin Powers on it.
