My New Long Tubes - Question

I put new long tubes on my 92 mustang oh about 2-3 months ago... They fit well, but I noticed that on the driver side header its close to the steering shaft, when I put them in it was about 1/4" away now its like 1/16 away.. its hitting a little when I make turns but it doesnt seem to hurt anything, I only drive the car like 2500 miles a year maybe.. You guy think that will hurt anything over time.. I just dont wanna break something.. and that headers a pain to get out.. Let me know what you what you guys think...

My New Long Tubes - Question

I'd crawl underneath and take a look at the motor mounts. Thye all wear out over time. I had to replace the mounts on my 88, while doing an oil change I noticed that the pan was physically sitting on the steering rack.
