The pictures are deceiving, there's a good 1.5" between that lower line and the drive shaft. My rag joint was shot when I pulled the engine, it was basically spinning on (1) of the (2) bolts.

Even as bad as that was it would not have swung far enough to hit the lines where they are at now. If you look at where the bracket attaches to the frame rail, I have it under the rail, I could move it the top, but really feel there is no need.
