Do the BBK shorties now fit 4x4?

I am trying to figure out if BBK fixed this or not. Old posts say that they do NOT fit, but on the BBK website it says they fit 4x4. I am confused.

BBK redesigned these a while back, but I still get phone calls monthly of people complaining that they are still hitting the steering arm on the 4wd models. JBA is a better fitting, better quality, and better performing shorty header, so I would go with JBA myself.

Dang Hemi450hp - where were you with this info a month ago? Lol. Did some research before buying them and couldn't find anything negative - I'll keep my eye on them and let everyone know. This whole warped manifolds and broken bolts is making me second guess my purchase of this truck.

Good to know, Matt! Not to derail the thread, but is it safe to assume you'll be displaying these shorties (and more!) at LSMF this weekend, with some great discounts for RF'ers with cash on hand?

I will be there Racing my silver truck, so no parts this time. I always take care of my local guys though, so we can talk options on Saturday.
