rear suspension help - knuckle spindle.

one of my first posts so i hope im posting this in the right area.

my cv boot is touching my knuckle spindle.
does anyone know if this is caused by a bent knuckle or something else?

i do drive a lowered/slammed car.
i have d2 coilovers, spc camber arms, and spl toe links.

I would say bent, is it touching on both sides? That part of the axle should move with the knuckle and never be able to touch no matter how low you are.

no, my driver side has a gap. I was planning on getting a new knuckle next week, I was just wondering if it could possibly be anything else.
