Let's see them tricky steering shafts

We are having a hard time with headers and clearance with our steering shaft. Can we see some pics of yours?? Some are very tricky, sometimes you have to get creative. Sometimes notching is the only solution. Here is a pic of ours.

Thank You

I read the thread on this frame on Porterbuilts site, did they do this for you? I've been trying to ask questions about it but can't post there.

Yes, it is Porterbuilt. Nate gave me the kind of headers he recommends, just wanting to see them steering shaft and knuckles. It's gonna be tricky for sure.

Re: Let's see them tricky steering shafts

This is the 4 link frame Nates been working on right? So what size are the tires and rims on that? What is the net drop?

On the subject of *your* problem... What if you were to drop the column end closer to the curve to the floor (I am assuming it's going to be a tilt column anyway) that would get you a more direct route along the frame maybe? Just throwing things out there.
