My friend got pacesetter's a couple months ago and it was also hitting the steering linkage... right at the upper u-joint. My pacesetters I bought a long time ago fit fine. I guess pacesetter did some changes. Well on his car, we ended up grinding a little down on the u-joint since it had lots of meat anyways. We took as little off as possible while keeping it's integrity and it still works today.

 

My Pacesetters have plenty of clearance. Maybe they got messed up at the factory or maybe even during shipping. Crazier things could happen..

 

busted motor mount??

 

brand new poly mounts went in with the new motor i just took off the linkage and grinded down where it was hitting at it should be fine now but contacting pacsetter was like talking to the wall they basically didnt care telling me to disconnect the motor mounts and try to move the motor to the right ?? he must not know anything about lt1 motors

 

Did you try and slide over the steering linkage first?

 

no i didnt even think about that until i logged back on here

 

we thought you ment hitting ....AFTER....the install. like the LPP ones were doing. yeah ..you have to remove the linkage.... then re-attach it
