Jeep xj steering upgrade.
Simple, solid and easy to install. Parked on flat surface with wheels straight, measured between tie rod mounts on steering knuckles , used a eight dollar puller from Harbor Frieght to remove tie rods. Bolted up new tie rod and drag link, reattached my steering stabilizer with supplied hardware. Installed grease zirks, greased joints and drove away. The only problem was the right front wheel would hit the tie rod when I turned to the left and bound up. I have stock 15" aluminum Jeep wheels and had to get wheel spacers (I used 1.5") before I could drive it. Wish I would have known before I installed this so I could have bought spacers first. These things are super heavy duty and look cool too. Ready for some wheelin.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Mixed feelings about this product
Ordered steering kit at a very good price and it shipped quickly. It has a heavy feel to it and the 1 ton tie rod ends are quite beefy. Kit installed easily enough. The first issue I had was with the placement of the bar lockdown clamps , the one on the drag link at the passenger side and the one on the passenger side of the tie rod will interfere/contact each other if placed where recommended by the instructions. The next problem I had was tightening the unbolts on the steering stabilizer mount . Just using a 1/4 inch drive ratchet (no cheater pipe) while laying on the ground not really putting much torque into at all and one of the ends of ubolt snapped in half. Had to go to hardware store and buy replacement. Driving with this T-style setup ,it's not a responsive as the original Inverted y style from factory. Jeep seems to wander a little while driving. Slightest hint of the dreaded "dead spot" that can be common with this setup from what I have researched. Haven't tried a anti roll spacer yet. Will install this weekend and hope this tightens it all up. My Jeep is a 99 TJ with a 1&1/2 lift. I'm told that the more lift the worse deadspot can be. Still find this product to be average to slightly better than average overall.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

It will work
It is well set up with the angles but it could be a little stronger. I will use it again but I will sleeve the tie rod for more strength. SkipVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

Second one I’ve bought.
I didn’t give it 5 stars because it did Bend on me and I wasn’t able to just by the tie rod. Had to buy a all new kit.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
