Rack/pinion problem

I sectioned my cross member two inches. Another member said he used a rack from a 00 Dakota. I picked one up and it lays on top of the lower control arms and about a half inch from the pulley

Someone who knows more will probably answer this but don't you need a notch in your frame to clear the R&P?
