Hes got the stock wheels. I know what your talking about. Mine rubbed very little. I just lived with it till I got my VP knuckles and wheels. You could narrow the stock wheels to clear and then when you go to VP knuckles, you could run the narrowed stockys to save you money

yes everything stock. i'm thinking of making a replacement arm (the one that connects to the knuckle) that would be a little longer
i'll get some pics of the problem asap

I think you would have been better off putting your rod end under the steering arm.
