I have been having a issue with my steering gear box since I bought it. bought it with a lift already installed with 33's. I took it wheeling and my gear box kept twisting to the point where it broke one of the bolts so I lost some steering. I fixed it and reinforced both sides of the frame with steel plating. I can tell it still wants to twist and I was thinking I needed a drop pitman arm. Any ideas?

 

need pics of steering angles

 

I can't get the pictures for a couple days since It's parked at a friends house. I can say that I need an alignment and my tir rod is not parallel with the axle.

 

that should not matter i ran 6.5 inches of lift for 5years with no steering up grade just had to adjust it way out to get wheels straight

 

you might want to install the steering brace and frame stiffner

 

they look like this

 

I did buy and install a steering brace but it doesnt seem to help much. The driver tire needs to be straightened with an alignment. I'm pretty sure the angles are out and its putting too much pressure on the gear box.

 

That's what I put on it. but the box moves it up and down. I see that one has a bolt on the side which mine doesn't...

 

toe in and toe out can be adjusted by you with a tape measure

 

I could if I knew how lol I'm not very car savvy but I'm trying to learn all that I can. I know someone that could help me fix that and save myself some money...

 

there you go ask for help and buy him a beer when hes done
