Title: ZJ steering box brace
Post by: ZJ_CREEP on January 31, 2023, 03:46:09 PM
Does anyone know where I could purchase a steering box brace for my ZJ, new, second hand don't mind which or anyone able to make one for me or if it's worth the effort modifying a LHD one for me, the one that Kevins off-road sells looks quite basic and in my non engineering/fabricators mind looks as if it could be modified to fit

Looking at the pic of the brace in their death wobble fix kit I think it would just be a case of cutting of the half bracket from the bar and welding it on to the the opposite side so it could be flipped to fit a RHD model. The track bar in the kit would obviously not fit a RHD. Do they sell the brace separately? I didn't look beyond that kit on the website.

They do sell the brace separately. Your thoughts on cutting and flipping is exactly what I was thinking but i wanted an another opinion, thanks for taking the time to have a look and reply
