    you can see in one of the previous pictures, the upper ball joint doesn't look like it is fully seated.

    Here are some more pictures of what it looks like.

    Looking at the front, you can kinda notice the top of the tires being in alittle, but it's not that bad.

    Just for fun, here is a picture of when I had to go to panama beach fl for work. We had a newer jeep cherokee

    When I have the front up on jack stands and the tires are off the ground, my steering knuckles hit the coil and coil isolator too. I called JBA and they said now that the ball joint isn't binding its going to do that. Also I just noticed today that my tires are sitting in like yours (mostly the passenger side tire) so I called the alignment shop. I was told they never touched the lower control arms cause the machine said they were in spec. Just my toe was off so they messed with the outter tie rods. I might have to take it right to the dealer and see if they can align it alittle better.
