It's a common issue on Mopars to have the rear of the oil pan making contact with the centerlink. This is known to be a very "tight fitting" area, and is often due to aftermarket oil pans being made deeper than stock ones, aftermarket engine mounts being thinner than OEM factory ones- which causes the engine to sit lower, past collision damage, incorrect parts, or even just plain old "sloppy" production tolerances from back when the cars were thown together on the assembly lines. And then, if you are running a windage tray, or especially a Main Girdle Plate, it drops the pan down EVEN FARTHER!! Our new dropped centerlink is just the solution! We've reproduced the factory centerlink to 100% OEM specs, except the center part which goes directly underneath the oil pan has been "dropped" by 3/4" inch, to give you a bunch of extra clearance under the oil pan. Click on the extra picture to see the two parts compared together in the same picture. These are also usable as a service replacement item if you just need a brand new centerlink (even if you don't necessarily need the additional oil pan clearance.) As far as we are aware, these are the only 100% NEW MANUFACTURED centerlinks currently available on the market. A long awaited solution to an age old problem!

These replace factory part number 2535877, which is very similar to the 1962-70 B Body centerlink (factory part number 1858015 or our dropped version, 200-1175)  , except one side of the link "kicks out" because they changed the angle of the steering box slightly on the K-member. If you click on the additional pictures, you can see our scans of the two bars, and easily what the difference is. In the first picture, you can see both bars laid next to each other. The grey bar is the early one (200-1175), and the blue bar is the later one (200-1188.) In the second picture, both scans are laid "on top" of each other, so you can see the exact difference of how one side "kicks out" farther.
