Failed inspection for bad idler. Replaced it making sure to push up on it thereby putting the frame bolts at the top of the slot. This is the same place as the original piece. Then I noticed a rub mark on the old one and realized it was hitting the exhaust crossover pipe. Anybody ever see this on their Sy/Ty ?

The new Moog part looks like it won't hit but, should I adjust it down a bit
before having the alignment checked ?
 
I have mine all the way down and it still rubs when I turn to the right. But I have bad motor mounts. I have new ones just havent got them on yet.
