Suggestion re: my steering after dropping x member
 

I dropped the front x member 1.5" and need to make room for the steering. If I notch the frame 2-3" and raise the power steering pump, will this work? Any suggestions?

Do the steering rods hit the frame?

Im not sure if this will hep but if you dropped the frame 1.5" into the crossmember, to retain proper steering geometry and avoid bumpsteer you need the raise the steering box and idler arm 1.5" up on the frame. Im sure that if you didnt move them up itd drive OK but it wouldnt be right.
