hi mate, me and matt had a similair problem with ours. The steering was really heavy and it would hit before going on full lock, we ended up having the spindles reamed out and a few bits shaved off. Not entirely sure exactly what because slamwerks done it for me so it might be worth contacting t2d. Hope this helps

Try removing the damper and see if that help.
Check ball joint gaitors for splits.
Jack wheels up, disconnect track-rods at one end so you can steer wheels independently of steering wheel and you'll narrow it down to box/idler or ball joints one side or other. Just might be a track-rod end but I doubt it would be so stiff.

Slamwerks shaved you and Matt? Did that make it more or less expensive? :lol:
