My front driver side sway bar link is rubbing my coil spring, the passenger side is fine with about an inch of clearance. It has about a 2 inch lift and an adjustable track bar, i do need to replace the track bar as it is a little bent, but would that cause this problem? i cant seem to figure it out.

the track bar being bent is probably due to the lift you have put on the truck.you should look into like powerblock tv on spike or on puter.and or truckU on speed they go into lifting a truck the geometry gets all screwed up and yo have problems like what you have. you'll have to really put a kit on this to straighten it out if you continue to have the lift on it. Will make it handle much better.
