steering box
Has anyone had the dreaded steering box pulling away from unibody problem?
Is any one using Rusty's steering box brace? If so how do You like it?

I have C-rok's internal box brace and its pretty nice compared to the stock aluminum POS. (beef steel vs shattered crap)
This is also with a Durango gearbox.

jcroffroad.com makes a beefy brace
And it's even on sale right now. And they offer new grade 8 bolts too if needed (which you'll probably need)

I also have the JCR steering box brace. My stock brace came out in about 9 pieces like so many others have experienced. I also have the Rustys brace as well. Haven't wheeled it a whole lot, but the whole set up seems pretty stout. I recommend it so far, cant be much worse than how it is from the factory.

C Rok Spacer, Grade 8 Steel Hardware and Durango Box....Couldn't be happier. The strongest setup possible on an XJ if you ask me.
