Steering box bracing
I'm looking to reinforce the frame at the steering box area. I found this kit online: http://www.rockcrawler.com/features/...rgs_r-acos.asp referenced on NAXJA in this thread: http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=5403. I was planning to build something like this as I have plate laying around. But this would be so much easier. I would like to minimize down time of the Jeep. Is this kit still for sale? Is there a similar kit that is for sale?

The ORGS SBS uses sleeves that weld through the frame to the spacer plate. I see the c-rok comes with sleeves on the bolts separate from the spacer plate. Do those sleeves weld in?

jesus that's expensive for a couple pieces of steel and bolts.
what I found that helped my wobbly frame rail the most was adding a good track bar brace
I would certainly encourage front frame stiffeners inside and out, but I feel the bracing is much more important
