QA1 K member (67-72) in a 74: Pitman arm hits torsion bar

Forget measuring two bolt-on parts. Lay a long straight edge along the tops or bottom of the torsion bars at the K-member. Then measure the distance to the frame. EVERY 67-76 K-member has the steering gear and torsion bars in the same place relative to the frame AND each other. Start simple and work toward the clearance issue.
