by the looks of it id say the lengths of angle you welded in to mount the steering box & idler arms stops the arms from them to the bar that joins
them together moving, cant be sure because of angles of pics but id suggest remount the steering box, disconnect the column from the box at the uni
joint then push/pull at the wheels while looking for things interfering with anything that moves, might be worthwhile looking where the body has
clearances for moving parts & try to make the mounts more like that if possible.
