Thumbs down sway bar vs control arm..

i recently put in a new strut in the front passenger side of my car. it had bad negative camber so i installed a new strut. it fixed the problem a little.. and now i just need an alignment. but now i started hearing popping when i turn. i checked what was popping while someone turned the wheels and i see the sway bar(i think thats what it is) hitting the control arm and the sway bar is winning. its the bar connected to the end link thats bolted on to the strut. thats the sway bar right? can someone help me out? lol i can get a pic for you guys to see.
