Can't get drivers side Hooker LT in

Hey guys, I got my passenger side header in without issue, didnt even have to drop the starter. The drivers side just does not want to go in though. Ideas?

Remove the steering linkage and it will slide right in.

You also have to remove the oil diverter (just above the oil filter) for the hookers.

I recently installed a set of PPC LTs. Had to get the front end up 36" from the front "chin" to the floor. They went in vertically without a hitch.

yeah its only 2 small bolts that are easy to get to. Also take the steering knuckle off and make sure you got your car as high as possible. The higer it is the more manuevering you can do.
