I too recently had my ARH LT Headers installed on my 17 4x4 ram crew cab and had the same problem with the steering shaft rubbing on the headers.I believe this is a 4x4 fitment issue because i previously had these same exact headers installed on my 16 2WD ram quad cab before and had no issues of fitment

I just had my motor out and ended up just grinding the corners of the knuckles on that joint that rubs on the headers just a bit and I'm good now.

I have a 2016 5.7 8speed, got the ARH 1 7/8 Catless LT’s from Moes, my steering column is slightly touching mine, and only the back 2 O2 sensor extensions are compatible, idk why the front 2 aren’t.

How did you fix it, dent the headers or file some of the steering column knuckle?
