Default 4in downpipe drivers side possible?

Ive been searching with not much luck.wanted to know if anyone has successfully Ran a 4 inch downpipe on the drivers side thru the kmember. Probably a stupid question.im using the bmr high clearance k and my inlet for my drivers turbo barely fit at 3inches between the steering shaft and k. Only other way i see is to relocate my alternator and put it threw that space . Need to figure something out so i can pull this current setup off and redo everything.
Thanks

Search Jakson on here. I did a kit for him with 4" down the drivers side.

The K-member itself will allow up to a 5" downpipe on either side. You may have to do a high-mount alternator configuration to get it to work on the driver's side though. Here are some pictures of one we test fit. Do you still have a stock rack or a manual? Here are pictures of one we test fit with a manual rack and out steering shaft kit. It just does clear.

Thanks for the pics. I now realize part of my problem,so i actually dont have the high clearance k,i have the lowmount twin turbo k.the second bar back that connects to the back side of the forward lower control arm mounting tab is straight and not curved. And thats exactly where the issue is. Hmmm.hopefully i can fit one where the alternator went

So, more room on drivers side (or both?) with a high clearance K vs a turbo K member
