Steering bind after 3" Body Lift?

[jd_21]

Hey Guys, just installed my new body bushings and my 3" body lift this weekend and now when i turn to the left it seems as of something is binding inside the the steering column. any thoughts on this problem anyone?

Did you also install the steering shaft extention? If you didn't, that is your problem.

if this helps it seems as if for some reason it is somewhat binding up near the steering wheel.

it should say in your instructions, you may have to modify the hole in the firewall a little.

nope never said anything in the instructions about that

you may have to "hog out" the shaft hole.... if thats where its binding. it may feel like the wheel binding because its all attached(obviously)

it is doing it right behind the steering wheel tho, like it makes a noise too
