Default Problem with lower ball joint rubbing brake.

Ok, like the title says I am having a problem with my lower ball joint and nut rubbing against the brake disc when I turn right. It is the driver side. I have adjusted the ride hieght and still no luck..

I have upgraded the brakes with 10.5 del sol brakes. I really would like any input on how I can correct this problem.

The car is a 00 EK hatch...any other info needed please let me know I will provide it.

thanks.

That is actually what I was thinking as well.

I am getting ready to replace the lower control arms with Si ones so I can run a sway bar and I will post if that corrected it.

Thanks.

Anyone else?

Does it look like anything in this thread? If so PM the OP and ask him how he fixed.
