Has anyone changed out their steering box that has clifford shorty headers on their a-body? Will they interfere with getting the box in and out?

Thanks

I have Clifford shorties on mine. I would have to say that even if they don't block you they will make it really tight getting the box out. :shock:

You may be able to break the drag link and take it out the bottom. :?

You'll have to take out the front header if power - manual is ok. IIRC you may have to push the tranny lines out of the way.

I have manual steering but my headers or header is all one piece. This shouldn't make a difference, I guess. Thanks for the input, just wanted to get some info before I started a short project that ended up taking all day.
