How do I know i need the steering box brace/spacer if I have a 3" lift and use 30×9.5×15 tires? Can one tell if the stock brace/spacer is broken?

You would have to pull the factory spacer to see if it's broken, but if you go that far you may as well replace it.

Is this bracket compatible with Durango steering boxes? Thanks

Yes, but you may need to add a couple washers between the inner brace and box. You can test fit the brace on the bench to see how many (if any) you will need. Make sure you have proper thread engagement after adding any washers.

Does this spacer come with mounting bolts? It is unclear in the description, reviews, q and a.

Sorry for the confusion, the spacer includes new hardware for the steering box and the additional back mounting hole.

Can this be installed without cutting? I have a stock height, stock suspension XJ and I want to retain the factory bumpers. Is it worth opting for the full Unibody Tie-In Kit for $100 more? Even if I am staying at stock height and stock bumpers? Thanks!
A

We'd recommend just the spacer if you are staying stock. No cutting required!

Would this work for a RHD XJ?
A
12/13/2022, 3:27:42 PM
It will not.
Q
Greg Smith • 01/23/2023, 1:27:25 PM
Will this work on a RHD one if it is flipped over?
A

It will not.

Nice fit and finish. Came with the three mounting bolts, and an additional nut and bolt you can use to hold it in place while you mount the steering gear. Overall very happy with the product.

Very well built product. Lined up great with OEM location, and install was surprisingly easy!

Was apprehensive at first to replace this, but glad I did. The OEM bracket was broken in several pieces and this new box fit perfectly and installed much easier than I thought. Great Product!

What a great product, I didn't even realize it came with new grade 8 bolts to mount the steering box. Cant beat this spacer for the price. Noticeable difference with my steering now compared to the old spaced which was broken

The part is sturdy has a nice coating on it and was made right. Tried another brand and the holes were way off. The install wasnt terrible just if you have an older XJ be mindful you may break bolts taking your gearbox out. Pingram1285

Really strong spacer! One word description would be overbuilt. JCR's customer service is top notch amd they were quick to ship this out to me after I told them my time sensitive situation.
