<DIV></DIV>> Ok, so I'm not going to pull them out cause its pointless basically, but what about my rubbing problem? Could it be in the tie rods somewhere?
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>> I will be in the garage with it this weekend to look at it so any help before then would be great but if I need to inspect it for the problem more I can do it then.
