Steering upgrade, check me

mavrick · Jun 4, 2005

From my research i plan on going with Rusty's Steering box brace; http://rustysoffroad.com/Merchant2/...rustys&Product_Code=JB-XJ75&Category_Code=ste.

C-ROK's Steering Box Reinforcing /Frame Reinforcing kit; http://www.c-rok.com/sb.html

What else should i upgrade. I have a 2000 xj, soon with a 5.5'' RE lift and 33's.

I have the CROK inner and outer on my '90. for a brace I went with M.O.R.E., I think its a better product.

i don't think u should get the rustys stuff. get the RE trac bar bnracket with the rod that does the same thing. the rusty's kit looks kinda gehto.

I have the C-Rok outer frame brace from my '90. It worked great. You can have it for $30+shipping. I don't need it anymore since I have a Rigid Co. bumper.

help me out a little when it comes to c-rok, those who are running the inner and outer did you purchase both products that are shown on this link; http://www.c-rok.com/sb.html

If your going to run 33s, I'd suggest putting on a drag link from a Grand Cherokee. If you wheel it hard the stock one will "horse shoe" under the pressure. I found this out the hard way.

It looks like the top one includes both the bottom one is just the inner.

If you have the Low Pinion Dana 30 you need to address the scary angles

Is this what your talking about? http://www.mountainoffroad.com/more.htm

I have installed both Rustys and MORE's steering gearbox brace. MORE's is a better product and is beefier then Rustys. Also MORE's mounting points always line up unlike the Rustys product. I install lots of add ons to the Jeeps in the local area and every time I have installed a Rustys product it always seems you have to modify something to get it to fit.

Re: Steering upgrade

1990 XJ
Steering a bit loose
saw the Mountain Off Road Ent. brace, http://www.mountainoffroad.com/Catalog/SteerBrace/steerbrace.htm

also the CROK "Complete Frame Repair Kit"

which is the better move? ...lasts longer, hand tool install, results in tighter steering feel?

POLAR_JEEP_04 · Nov 24, 2008

why not use both? i do

grimah1w · Nov 26, 2008

working the economics...what -if any- is the virtue of the one over the other?
