i'm pretty sure at the very least the bolt that holds the shaft on will rub. I'd say it might be motor mounts. I'll look at my Z in the morning. I have SLP's that have the same design on the front primary i'll look at how much clearance i have.

Id try grindin down the shaft first. if the bolt hits, then you cant really do anything about that. poly motor mounts will raise some over stock mounts, and will raise even more if your stockers are worn/sagging. think I'll get hookers instead of dealing w/that. lets see a pic when you figure it out and get it to clear.

I've seen closer, you should be fine. Try it before you bend them. Are those coated or do they come like that? They look pretty nice. How much are the pacesetters going for?

I bolted the shaft on today, and turned the wheel.....it fits fine, and doesn't rub. They're ceramic coated.

Good thing it fit, so did mine BUT when you get on it when your driving and the engine torques it hit in mine. I fixed this by grinding the shaft down a little. Worked for me.

actually, the passenger side header slid in fairly easily w/some wiggling....all I had to do was get the car up a few extra inches off teh jack stands. No K-member grinding or motor jacking involved
