Well replacing the ball joints/alignment has helped some. I no longer feel or hear the problem when I turn hard left just hard right.

While it was on the lift Ron let me come down into the pit to look at the damage and he said that it was just roughing up the rim some and wouldnt hurt anything. I am very glad for that. I will post some pics up here soon.

I took the grinder to the tie rod on the drive side and took off some where the rim had been rubbing. Taking a little bit at a time then testing to see if the rim would make contact it finally stopped touching. I dunno why I didnt have to do the same for the passenger side.
