Throttle Down Kustom Frame, issues

[rguest3]

If the top, left corner of the Borgeson Box mount was not hitting the frame, would the holes line up?

Possible to Not use the Top Left Bolt mount, grind if off as needed, and mount Box?

That said, I'd make the frame fit whatever steering box I intended to use if possible. Especially if I was using a stock bronco steering box, that way swapping to another box is just a matter of bolts and not doing this all over again.

I second this approach if possible. Just drill it out where you need it but oversized, weld-in some tubes for the bolt locations to help reinforce the area and go have a beer and admire your work. It wouldn't take much time at all but that assumes you have a shop with a welder.

Number three for this approach.

Well I cut the main core section to clear the steering box, And I sliced and diced the borg box a tad on the top left hole, still no dice. I plan on opening up the holes a tad, blue paint marker is what I need to clear.

I posted a photo of the mounting location for SA

I want to use the borg steering box, because my original needs to be rebuilt.

You could weld some thick wall tubing to the steering box like the unit I got from AGR.

I had the same problem with a new borg box on my stock 74 frame. The sloppy box I pulled off was also a borg box and the holes had been stretched a bit. I ended up using a carbide bit in a die grinder and extending the top right hole of the steering box enough to get them all in. I had a brand new bit and it only took a few minutes of grinding.
