    You are turning too short and hitting the spring, frame or something. I (just my opinion) sure would not let TA touch my alignment.

    Severe toe out?

    Edit: didn’t see the pic with the slice in it. I second what @starmac said. Looks like You’re getting into your spring or hanger or something.

    I gotta go with the wheel cut being set too sharp and contacting something on the frame or suspension.

    If it is I wouldn’t trust T/A to work on it. Find an alignment shop if it is.

    How does it handle going down the road?

    I agree also that it’s hitting something when you turn sharp. Look around and see if you have any marks, Frame, spring, and or any accessories mounted on the frame.

    But I wouldn’t leave out the toe being to out either.

    I have seen a lot of wear from some serious bad tow ins or outs, but never seen it rip chunks out. I am betting there is some shiny metal there somewhere.
