That over spray is horrible, you should try to wet sand it or something

It is. It is a work in progress. After the Christmas spending is over, it is going to get painted desert tan so I don't feel like sanding it down for the few weeks until it gets painted.

That's actually just the way it sits, definitely NOT bent. It is stock and I will get to the ZJ upgrade eventually or I will just go OTK 1 ton. With the stock front skid and my lift I've never been concerned about breaking it because it is tucked up really well. The real problem is probably needing a drop pitman arm but HEY! if it ain't broke don't fix it.

Picked up a Durango steering box today. All I had to do was separate the pitman arm from the drag link, didn't have to remove a single bolt in order to take this baby home! Also got my replacement powersteering pump too.

I talked to my uncle(works for Dodge/parts dept manager) and he informed me there is ONLY one part number for the durango steering gear. With/Without snow plow option is bull**** so don't worry about it! So to simplify any 98/99 Durango steering gear WILL work. F**K YES!

What he said. Not an issue of not properly masked off. Paint coming soon, so why waste the time masking it all off.
