Hey brothers point me in the right direction! Why when I make a hard turn my front side scrapes? Its not lowered... when I installed my sway bar it helped but not completely

Where is it scraping? Wheel on control arm or contacting the inner or outer fender?

If it's all bone stock, the nylon travel limiters under the rack bellows are probably crushed or broken.
