That's also clearly a problem how unsupported such a critical part is... I was thinking more on the alignment, I have to have a fiddle further but was thinking to keep the brake pedal attached to the chassis rather than the steering box eliminating the need for a false floor panel but also then not putting additional force on the steering wedge.. I'll need to look further to what others are doing.
The car was originally a 50's special with a welded steel wedge, sturdy enough however the wedge was fitted further back requiring a custom drag link...

Matt... It may be worth fitting the drag link at this point to check clearances. The raised position of the steering box on a wedge meant mine looks likely to foul the flange on the edge of the chassis on full left lock and needs a rethink. I have yet to go back to it.
