whats the best steering set up to get , i been looking at a few ,right now im running the rugged ridge set up , wich isnt to bad but i think one of the tie rod ends is going , i need something heavy duty, i dont want sit there and fab one up i got to many other projects going on at once , if i gotta ream out some holes or something thats fine , but for the most part i want a direct bolt up , whats everyones opinons ?

what tire size? how much lift? what kind of wheeling are you doing?

answer these questions, you need to, danielson.

best bolt on? ORO's u-turn setup. but you're gonna pay for it.

6.5" lift , 33" tires , i do all sorts of wheeling , lots of mud and stuff here , but i do alot of hill climbing and going thru washouts and stuff , i seen that uturn set up and i wasnt really liking it to much

at 6.5" lift you need crossover.

JCR over the knuckle would be your cheapest option, you'll need to go over the axle with the trackbar as well.

other options are the ORO, and WJ knuckles+ steering

im running jcr and i love it. about to switch it to otk as soon as i get some time

xjbuddy

which JCR kit are you running? they have like three models.

RoyalXJ

they only have 2 types of steering, 1 ton over the knuckle (otk) and 1 ton under the knuckle. right now im set up for under but im ready to go over when i get some time. ive got the passenger side rod end reamed for otk, the jcr sway bar link kit and my knuckles are drilled and sleeve with ballistic one ton inserts. all thats left to do is to cut an inch off the drag link, build a track bar and weld up my track bar bracket when im ready from the swap.

I ran Iron Rock's 5/8" rod end upgrade all last season on some pretty extreme trails. I didn't damage it all that I could tell which was way better than the WJ upgrade I had before.

Found this trhead by searching ...gonna dust it off. I ran into a guy w/ a TJ and a Rugged Ridge Crossover system he got on ebay. I found the link there and it said it could not be used w/ 6.5" lifts. Do I need one that's lift height specific?

DEVILSTOY

I been running the rugged ridge for a year with 7.5" lift with no major issues

your rr steering doesnt roll like a mother f'r???
