    They hit me on the back of my passenger front tire yes. So is the spindle bent? Is the tie rod bent? Where can you buy pro comp longer spindles?

    Most likely the tie rod, would seem to be the weaker thing but visually noticeable I would think based on your situation.

    CALLED IT!!!!

    Back of the passenger tire gets hit, rack n tie rods dont move as the twisting force is PULLING on the passenger tie rod (as its in front of the spindle turning axis). Only place to go is for the attachment point of the lever from the center of the spindle out to the tie rod to bend. Then to get tires "straight" your alignment guy moved both sides in as far as he could as the passenger side spindle is a solid 1/2in + bent

    just look at the picture.... Top is passenger, bottom driver. Passenger has WAY more space between the disk and tie rod. Your spindle is bent.... Fire the guy who does your alignment if he couldnt see that.
