I'm using a plate that I got from Randy Malik in my 89 chassis. I cannot say that it would clear the steering gear, but some kind of cutting and fabrication should get the problem solved. I prefer the steel plate, because I could do anything to it with the tools in my shop. Aluminum is not as easy to weld or cut for me.
