Title: Steering box stop for 2" narrowed balljoint RHD beam?

Steering box stop for 2" narrowed RHD beam?
Just wondering what you guys are using for a steering box stop on rhd balljonit beams? my steering box arm (the stop part) is hitting the part of the beam where the steering box stop would weld too. Any advice or pics would be great.
My beam is a Cb (old style like a oem beam), 2" narrowed.
Thanks.

Interested in this, its a job on the finishing list. If I get round to it before you've got it solved then I will post up some pics for you  ;)

I'm sure there are plenty more sophisticated methods, but I just clearanced the end of the steering arm, made a flat on the arm where it hits the stop and welded the stop in the normal place.

Works for me anyway.
