1 Ton Steering Upgrade

Hello everything this is my first post here so getting used to everything, but looking to beef up the steering on my 98 XJ. 3.5 inch Rubicon Express lift on 33x10.5s. Any recommendations for a kit? Nothing super cheap but something that won’t break the bank. Thanks!

X2 on the V8 ZJ tie rod. A buddy did this 2 years ago & it cost about $130 for everything.

Steering issues

I replaced my steering bars with 1"aluminum bars. Ii used a company called stinky fabrications located in escondido, ca. I went with above the knuckle install also. Only negative is I had to switch to larger 16 wheels for all to fit.
