With my gussets on the spindles and a bad alignment do you guys think that would cause the rotor to rub ? I have a bad grinding noise coming from the front end

Check your brake pads. Is the noise speed related or suspension movement?

Suspensión related would be my guess .. I hear it at low speeds but it's a really hard grinding noise
Sounds like it could be a wheel bearing. Of you find no obvious metal on metal contact anywhere, you can put the front wheels in the air and grab the wheel at 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock and check for any play, which would indicate a worn wheel bearing (this test works for UBJ too).

I just put everything in new on the spindles ... I'll lift the truck up later .... been wrenching in the 48 and I'm beat
