Front suspension scraping noise?

Just had the torsion bars (larger bars) and front bushings (plastic) replaced on my SC. I also replaced the ball joints and tie rod ends (has turbo rods already). My question is, there is a rubbing almost scraping noise on the right side when the suspension moves now. I know there are probably a ton on things it could be but I was going to see if there is anything obvious. Im taking it back to the shop that did it tomorrow so they can check it out. They are friends and did the work for pretty much free so if I can find it myself I will just do it.

thanks!

I had the same problems too. I solved it after jacking it up, removing the tire and dropping the strut down out of the fender so I could observe anything unusual. Problem is I found nothing, so I put it back together and the noise just disappeared.

Sometimes you just need to get your hands dirty.
