My problem is thesteering colum is hitting to back upper control arm bolt... I am thinking about cutting the fire wall and moving it up an in or so... Can't go to far cause of the brake booster. I have tilt steering and was told this would raise it just enough and cure the problem... Anyone else ran into this problem? Or have any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance....

I have an s10 that is laying door. i ran into the same problem. I moved the steering column up about 1 inch and then put some spacers under the mounting holes nearest the steering wheel. My rag joints and destroyed so im prob gunna buy some nice universals.

agreed- i kind of regret going that far cause it makes it hard to drive and steer and whatnot. but its fun to be the lowest at many shows.

Funny story- There is a guy on nissan minis that is building a truck now jsut to beat me. Its funny because he bded is 6 inches and cut the roof 5. Hes all cocky about it saying now competition and stuff. I dont think he knows they measure the doors and not the roof.

LUV2SPRK, I've seen it a bunch before and it looks killer. I no there can't be much head room in there as it is but it'd look hot with the roff chopped alittle!
