Hello, I have a 03 Wrangler X with 33x12.5x15 tires. I have an older AGR steering box that is leaking where the pitman arm connects. Is there a rebuild kit for this or should I buy a new one? If a new one is needed what company would you go with? Max budget $600

I’m trying to determine source of death wobble in my 2007 Jk (with stock parts). I posted about this earlier and got some great recs that said do a “dry” inspection before spending $$. Would it be weird or extra to remove some of the main parts like track bar, tie rod, drag link, etc...

Last week in SD we got hit with a lot of snow and the JL got stuck in the driveway. In an attempt to rock back-n-forth along with turning the wheel l/r, l/r,.... repeatedly. The next day there was no power steering. It is now soooooooo hard to turn wheel that i can not even drive it on the road...

I have a 2016 Rubicon JKU. I have a AEV JK 3.5″-4.5″ DualSport Suspension, 35's on factory wheels with 1.5" spacers and re-geared to 4:56. The jeep had a little more play in the steering wheel than I wanted and it has around 55K miles. So when I had the jeep mechanic throw out suggestions he...

I've got a 2008 JK with stock suspension that I brought in for an alignment with some new ball joints (never done steering repairs myself). Took it to a Jeep dealership because they quoted better than local shops, but during the service they called to inform that they broke one of the steering...

Took over a jeep project that has been sitting in a pals garage for a few years now. His dad worked on it before passing, so it's got new belts and guides, and all new fluids everywhere but the brake lines. The man was no mechanic though. I got it back running around the block by cleaning...

In the last year... has anyone discovered the solution to the JL Steering Wander problem? Or, has Jeep issued a fix in that timeframe? There was really nothing prior to that, when it was first discovered in 2019. The issue is clearly in the amount of the steering assist and/or the steering...

Have been dealing with some brutal steering/traction control/abs-like issues the last couple of months. I remembered out on a trail I heard a weird sort of popping clunk sound. Oddly enough my buddy was recording at the time. I don’t know if this has anything to do with the other issues I’m...

Hello all! I’m definitely needing to replacing my steering box in my 2010 JKU. Don’t have much to spend on it right now so I will be going with a stock one. I can feel it skipping a tad. I’ve tried adjusting it but it pretty sure it’s shot. My question is, does anyone have a low mileage one out...

Hi Everyone, Recently upgraded to the RPM Steering 1-Ton JK Steering Kit (Tie Rod and Drag Link). Upon getting it installed, it was found that my wheels at the time didn't have the proper backspacing to clear the tie rod ends. RPM's site page for the kit states that a 17" wheel with 4.75"...

I'm a mechanical noob and I'm starting my journey into fixing my steering issues. I'm being forced into this a bit because my jeep has just become too much work to drive, and its steering issues are making me so nervous that I don't like having the kids in the car with me if we are going 45+mph...

I recently upgraded my 2013 JK sport 2 door with Tereflex 2.5" lift, drag link, tie rod, track bar, and HD ball joints. Also upgraded to 35" tires. I did the lift first to make sure everything felt right, and it did. Then I got all the steering components and HD ball joints in. Immediately when...

I hit a retaining wall and now my steering wheel is off from 12:00 when the wheels are straight. It's tracking pretty straight so I am assuming this has something to do w/the R&P. I need to move the wheel so that I can see the speedometer (I guess the wheel is at ca. 8-9 o'clock). How can I...

My Jeep is experiencing flighty steering / loose steering. Constantly having to keep my hands on the wheel. Wanting to pull hard after hitting a bump or even going across rough railroad tracks. I can feel shock coming through the steering wheel & seat after hitting any slightest bump. Running a...

Hello Everyone, Let me start by saying thanks for the information everyone has posted. I've gotten this far with my jeep based on the info I've found searching through this forum. I've been screwing around with cars for years, and have even owned a cj before. But this lifted TJ is a whole new...

Hey everyone, this is my first post and I’ve got a bit of a problem. I had a small accident and hit a fire hydrant the other day. The only damage to the rubicon was a small dent on the front bumper and the shaft that goes into the steering column from the pitman arm. I don’t have any pictures of...

I have recently changed to a dana 44 1ton up front on my Jeep YJ and my question is: I have a Hi-Steer knuckle on drivers side but not on the passenger side. Can I connect my drag link directly to the drivers side or do I have to keep the original of connecting to passenger side? I know I would...
