Loud Grinding Noise on Sharp Right Turn

Hi! I have a 2011 Ranger Sport 4x4. The previous owner had placed it on a 3" lift and put some custom wheels and some 33x12.50 mud tires on it. Well, I got my tires replaced and got an alignment done. But now when I make a sharp right turn I hear a grinding noise coming from the passenger side wheel. I was wondering if any body may know what this is? If all else fails I'll take it back to the shop but I'd like to try and get some answers elsewhere first. Thanks in advance!

turn the wheel hard while stopped, see what's rubbing.

Really it could be anything, a bad ball joint causing the front end to flex, something stuck in the suspension. They could have a cotter pin bent wrong and its rubbing. Who knows without looking. Should be easy to spot
