Default Front end clunk

My front end clunks when I turn left on my 01 4x4. The steering center link and the drivers side inner tie rod end hits the frame. I need help to figure out whats wrong

Got pics? I think that would greatly help in figuring it out.

You should be able to see something wrong and out of place when you inspect it.

As the steering is moving from side to side the linkage rotates some. At one point it seams to bind a little then flips up and hits the frame. I will try and get a video of it latter. I can not see anything loose or worn in the steering
