Question VID added clocked Mod on Zero Ackerman High Steer Knuckles with OTA

ok i have installed a High Steer Link & Zero Ackerman High Steer Knuckles (over the axle sterring) from RcBros They look and work like a champ!! hats off!! clears alot of hang up in the front.
my question is I want to clock my knuckles but kinda worried about the clearance over the axle with the linkage?
has any one done this mod with this setup?
how far did you go?
any issues?
Thx Doug

Doug,
The mod is pretty easy with a dremel, simply flatten the edges and turn the c's, drill new holes and your done. The only issue I've found is if you don't go far enough, you'll break back into the factory holes.

I am working on adjustable aluminum clocked c's and should have them done soon. This makes it a bolt on mod.

If you look mine is clocked a bit. 20 deg. (better side hilling)
There is no drag/steering linkage in front of the axle (nothing to get hung up on) alot cleaner look i think.

I can agree with the linkage catching, but looks like it still has them in the way, from the angle I see
but the steering is so reduced, especially with using cvd's
needs more throw
