Grinding noise after Sportline install

I've had my sportlines on for a week. The car is going in to be aligned tomorrow. Anyway when I turn sharply to the left there is a grinding noise in the front right. I looked at it and it looks like the tie rod (I think) is rubbing against the CV shaft when I turn hard to the right? WTF?? It doesn't do it one the other side?? I dont know that much about steering and suspension so I think its the tie rod but idk? Is that even possible. I'm gonna have the shop look at it when I take it in for the alignment tomorrow.

Solution

Just as a reference thread, the noise I was hearing was the stabilzer bar rubbing against the CV shaft. They reinstalled the both stabilizer bars on the other side of the strut than they wereon from the factory and that fixed it. I guess that's what happens when you lower something 2.5"
