Not sure where to post this, but it developed from header installation...
I removed the lower end of the steering shaft to be able to slide the headers into position. I can't get the upper bolt through the clamp at the top of the shaft. When I look through the clamp, I can see splines from the top end of the D-shaft, but I can't move the shaft up or down to get past the splines. Anyone have a solution? [img]
