Make sure you have them installed on the proper side.  They should each have 
a cut out area to clear the tie rod.  When we were doing the brakes on my 
Midget during the NOSHIT we ran into the same problem.  I had set up the a 
parts box for each wheel and had mixed up the dust covers right for left. 
Swapped them out and all was good.
