High steer set up with a v6

[TUF-GMH]

Hi guys I have a problem, I have an 88 model dual cab hilux. It currently runs a buick v6 commodore motor. I'm in the process of setting up high steer in this car but have found the ifs steering box hits on the radiator, has anyone else done this or can give me a heads up on the options I have etc? Thanks guys

What radiator does it have?

I had a Hilux that was using a commodore radiator, when I put high steer on it I had to change back to a Hilux radiator. I had no issues with the Hilux radiator, it sits in between the chassis rails so shouldn't hit the steering box, but the commodore one was too wide.

Yeah it has the commodore one in it, I thought about changing to the hilux one but wasn't sure.
Cheers mate

just out of curiosity what did you do with the sump to clear the draglink? i made a custom one just interested to see what other people are doing.

From memory, I had a 2" bodylift and lifted the motor along with it. The car had a Marks 4wd chassis mount on the passenger side which I had to cut off and redo. It hangs down low to allow for an air conditioning compressor.
