Suspension Problem after spindles install

I just install my 4' CST spindles and I notice something scraping against the wheel. I only hear this noise when I turn the wheel all way. Is this normal??

you have to switch the tie rods. put the left to the right and the right to the left so the curve of the tie rod goes outward and it will not scrape.

No You Didnt Read The Instructions Did You, You Have To Not Only Flip The Tie Rods, But You Have To Cut Off About 1/4" Of The Steering Rack That The Tie Rods Thread Onto Each Side If Memory Serves Me....go Back And Reread And Be Sure To Get It Aligned When Done

no need to cut the threaded tie rod ends. just thread the ends on farther. thats what greg @ PRG told me and i havent had any problems with alignment or anything.

CST recommends cutting off/grinding about 1/2" but so far I've never had too.
