Grinding noise at full lock hitting bump
So everyday when leaving my complex I pull out of my parking spot, I turn full lock to the left and hit a small speed bump at the same time. It's never made a sound before but the last two days in a row it's made this horrible metal on metal grinding sound precisely when I'm at full lock and go over the speed bump. I can't replicate it during the rest of my commute. Any ideas?
2014 FX4 19,000 miles, Fox 2.0 coilovers on for about 7000 miles.

Boost :)
The "stops" for the steering are just metal on metal. They will grind at full lock if either tire moves up or down. Completely normal.
Grease them up if you don't like the noise.

Did they come greased from factory? Seems weird it only started out of the blue like that

Could be your integrated wheel end partially engaging. Try to pull the black vacuum line from your hub then make the same turn, if it doesn’t make the noise you know it’s your vacuum line that is leaking. I just dealt with this where the vacuum line crack only opened at a certain degree turn
