what's it rubbing and what is your setup lifts/tires/spacer? At full turn mine rub the frame on the pass. side a little. with 285/75/16 GaurdDogs, 2"BDS suspension lift and 1.5" spacers.

You either bumped the suspension and threw off the alignment on that side or your LCA bushings are shot.
Mine did the same thing after I hit a rock the wrong way.

Breaking shit while mall crawling is humiliating. I was going to try and climb up one of the concrete light post bases (about 3 feet tall, straight up) at the meet I was just at. I decided not to because if I broke a CV doing it I would have to run home crying like a girl.

So CV Axle Boot ripped noticed today. Oil on the passenger side frame rail can figure out if its the same amount from the last oil change or not that was there last time. checking the oil not down any oil in it. No oil pools on the ground parked or when running.
