control arm problems

I recently installed upper and lower tubular control arms from cpp(biggest mistake ordering from cpp) on my 62 convertible and only when you turn to the right the inner tie rod hits the lower control arm bolt. Ive called cpp and they said they never heard of it and to grind the lower control arm bolt. I am not grinding a brand new part that is supposed to fit right. the control arms are on right because they can only go one way because of the sway bar holes. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Have you had a chance to look at the idler arm? If the mount (turned 180) is backwards, it could get the tie rod too close to the A arm.
