Hey guys, been awhile, but still rocking the XJ.
Last weekend I heard a pop while on some rocks, got out to find the steering box hanging lifelessly by the steering column and lines, all three bolts had snapped.
Spent the day drilling out the bolt shafts, but theres no where I could tap them, so I did a through bolt. Everything is bolted up nice and tight, and looks good.
As I'm reading here, People often reference a spacer for the steering box. Am I missing something? Starting to think it fell out and went missing in the woods.
Can I run without the spacer?? This XJ is now my street-legal trail rig, as I just purchased a 2012 4-Door JK.
Thank you
