Has anyone used Texas Speed long tube headers and had problems hitting the steering arm?

Mine hit but they are the 2″, this is not an issue if you go 1 7/8″. I’m gonna fix my problem this week by putting a small dimple in the header where it rubs.

Mine ripped a hole in the rubber boot. I might have to do the same.

Tommy

I cut off the rubber boot on initial install

David

same here. mine only touched under hard right hand cornering. it touched right where the corner of the knuckle is. small dimple is all thats needed.

Tommy

Did you have to pull it back off to dimple it?

David

You can do it with them on.

Tommy

Unbolt steering shafts and collapse it for room?

David

Just turn the wheel so the knuckle is out of the way.

I laid them on their side and supported it with wood blocks heated it and tapped it with a hammer and big socket on its side

Cody

Once I made the dimple to clear the steering knuckle, the second primary started to rub farther up the shaft.
