So I put in my steering stabalizer and noticed a problem. The tie rod (i think) has been rubbing up against the bottom of the sway bar (i think). I took a pic. My friend said the drag link is bent? I don't know......help please.

It's difficult to tell from that close. Could you take a picture further away? Also, do you hear scraping when you turn? Or is it more difficult to turn right than it is left?

That is awesome!! Thanks!

I don't hear any scrapping and I haven't noticed any difficulty turning, but when my friend and I were putting on the stabalizer he had mr turn the wheel to the right and sawthat it would hit.
