There are just some days I wish I didn't turn wrenches

I will have to look closer when I get the parts and get back to the work but that shaft can likely be unbolted and moved. Shall see. D/S is the harder side and I always do the hard side first.

Somewhere, I saw a steering shaft adaptor , using a CV joint, attached to the shaft to relocate the angle. Used for a retrofit engine/headers.

She has no steering problem and I plan to just concentrate on the valve cover.

I saw where a steel swivel, from Jeeps, is a pretty common replacement/upgrade for GM's rag joint.

All hard parts got here today for the 2010 F150 5.4 and for the 2005 Tahoe LS.

I also needed the correct size rubber pinch weld pad for the floor jack arm cup to set in. The rubber pad came today. It is gonna be a perfect fit and set right down in the steel cup.
This should easily lift the door off the hinge pins and then roll off to the side and wait for reassembly. The pinch weld rubber channel comes in two depths. Pics of how this will work once I attach the floor jack arm cup.
