MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Wheel rubbing

Hi Guys

Just a quick note to ask for some advice.

When the car is put on full left lock the front passenger wheel rubs on the anti roll bar link, the drivers is rubbing on a bolt, the disk brake backing plates are also rubbing on a nut and bolt.

On full right lock the passenger wheel disk brake backing plate is rubbing on a nut and the drivers backing plate is rubbing on a bolt.

I shall take some pictures during the week if it would help.

Any advice would be gratefully received

potentially worn lockstops?

my tyre (175) caught on the ARB link, I un-centered the ARB to stop it, and turned the links the other way round on the ends.

If there's that much catching then there might well be something else wrong.

pictures might help :)
