Headers

[rugster]

I have longtube headers where the steering shaft goes between the driver side header. Can I remove the shaft and pull the motor or do I have to take the header off to pull the motor?

basically does anyone know if I can separate the splined steering shaft in the middle?

Why would you want to separate the steering shaft in the middle? Can't you just unbolt it from the rack?

unbolting it at the rack wont help because the steering shaft goes between the header pipe and the bottom part of the shaft that bolts to the rack is to large to squeeze through the gap between the header pipes. Its only big enough for the shaft itself, not the part with the pinch bolt that bolts to the rack.
