Pacesetter makes one. I have a 3" body lift on an 80 4x4, and I had to hammer a "notch" into the side of the collector to clear the clutch linkage, but it was a fairly minor modification, and an exellent upgrade over stock IMHO.

I got an older very rusty header with some other stuff I bought once. So I consider it free. I had it powder coated as close to chrome as they had, for about the same $160 as a new header cost. It looks good, well it looked good until the first time one of the kids mud bogged it through a big puddle. :roll:
But that's what our 4X4 is for. 8)
