Thanks for the info XJ-Jake!

SO im guessing the snow plow model must have a higher gear ratio equaling more turns but easier to turn larger tires/heavier front end? which if that is the case sounds good to me and its $40 cheaper...

Looks like I'll be going for the steering box. I have double triple and quadruple checked everything. Hopefully this solves the issue.

For the Durango box i know there is a debate between with...

And as for camber positive or negative camber made no difference.

I used a string,jack stands and a tape measurer there is a good video on youtube on how to use this method. Ive used it on other lifted vehicles and works quite well.

Also i want to add that I added a steering box brace. And I did double check the alignment and everything appears to be correct also i played with camber and toe. toeing in or out made no difference...

Ok guys I really need some advice.
I have a 97 cherokee with a 6.5" long arm kit and 35's.
After installing the lift over a year ago my steering has been all over the place.
Meaning it pulls left...

Then add a winch plate to either the stiffeners or bumper haven't decided that yet. The stiffener upgrade probably wont happen till this winter some time. I want to replace the steering box with a...

Im going to redesign my mounts on the bumper to mate to the stiffeners.

Once i got home i decided i really needed to mount my tool box and spare in the truck so this is my progress after a couple days.
Tool box is now mounted for easy removal....

Well ive been seriously lacking on the updates, but i have been busy working on the jeep and Taking it out wheeling.
I started to fab up some frame stiffeners that are going to double as winch and...

After the steering box brace was installed along with sway bar bushings and re-tightening my pitman arm my steering is much better.
Next up is building frame stiffeners/bumper mounts. Should have...

News Update! steering was still a little shaky after the alignment at speeds between 20-40mph. After you speed up all seems to be well. This is not acceptable to me to i decided first to make a...

Are you talking about how i did the cut on the rear?

The guy that i bought it from built it with his brother in law.

Put in the new bushing in tonight seems to drive a bit better but not all the way gone. we will see what happens after the alignment.

On another note some guy started talking to me in the parking...

Thanks A Lot! Never thought about the bushing and it does have some slop. I have the sway bar back in now along with a Rancho steering stabilizer.

Another beauty shot

Here it is all finished up. It was very squirrelly driving down the road pulling back and forth and left to right so i installed a drop pitman arm which didn't help pulling back and forth but did...

I finished the rear off with sheet metal, rivets, a couple spot welds and under body paint. The final touch was some trim around the wheel wells. I used the old fender flares for the trim, I heated a...

sure did then fixed it up real nice like
