I have a 99 xj on 33s with a stock box with jcr spacer. Stock box is fine for now but I'm sure the 33s will get to it sooner or later. I can probably get the stock box rebuilt if need be. Anyway I came across this box

Ive been hearing not to do the Durango swap due to inconsistency in the reman boxes. I know the redhead box is a reman but I'm hoping it is better built. If anyone is running one I'd like to know what you think.

 

I don't have one, but I know they rave about them on Ford truck forums. Ford trucks are famous for sloppy steering, and the Redhead steering box is considered The Cure.

 

Really....good to know. It seems they will also rebuild your box if you send it to them. For the price I cant see taking a chance on a chain store box.

Would I benefit from using a Durango box from redhead? I was also looking into TnT 4 bolt conversion for boxes with 4 bolts. Is this worth it considering the kit is around 200 something bucks?

It's a DD with occasional off road trips.

 

Agreed!

That part I don't know about. It's unfamiliar territory for me.
