Tire rubs on suspension arm
My 89 laredo just had some front end work done and new tires put on. The shop installed a new track bar and steering damper. I stepped up to size 235/75/15 tires.
When I turn very hard to the left the back of the tire rubs on the suspension arm. It does not do this when I turn to the right hard(misses it by about 2 inches).
This jeep is my first and only had about a week. It may have done the same thing before this work was done but I wouldn't know for sure.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

with wheels straight, take a level to the out side of each tire and measure to the flare. pretty sure your track bar is off, this will verify. if so take it back and tell them there idiots
The tires are perpendicular to the ground when the tires are straight. However, when they are cranked hard to either side they are not straight to the gound. When I have it cranked all the way to the left the top of the tire leans away from the vehicle about two inches more than the bottom of the tire.

Not lifted. Pretty sure they replaced with same size track bar. How is the track bar measured, a straight line from end to end or is the bend measured as well?
Thanks
