Jaejae u can grind down the rag joint this the usual offender or massage the header if you are running 1 5/8 but if you are running 1 3/4 LTs I strongly recomend you buy an aftermarket 1 piece steering shaft that does not have rag joint. Maximum Motorsports and flaming river both make nice pieces. As a bonus your steering will feel more responsive with the 1 piece steering shaft.
