**HELP** PS longtubes rubbing on steering
I just put on my pacesetter long tubes today and the #1 primary is rubbing on the steering knuckle right where the screw attaches it, so the car doesn't turn so well, any help on this would be great. Does it need convincing with a hammer or what? pelase help, its my daily driver...the open headers are loud enough, lol.

Motor mounts may or may not help, but my jet-hots hit even with fresh mounts. Hammered it away, and its fine. You can also have an exhaust shop redo the header with new pipe and have it away from the shaft, but thats pricy
