Steering Upgrade

[Mikes off road]

Merry Xmas everyone I have a question for you. I have been jumping back and forth on what type of steering upgrade I should do with my red XJ. I am thinking Currie but it will not help out with the angles (lifted 6.5"). I was also thinking JCR but I hear stories about a dead spot in the steering. Anybody here have any experience from what they have done not read about on the web. Thanks

I put this on my xj and it had about 5 inches of lift.
I think that is about the max that they recommend for the currie system, maybe a little more.
it is a very beefy system that looks like it should hold up well.

right now I have a bit of play in the steering box, but everything feels loads better than before(but I did have alot of issues with the stock set up before.

I'm currently running the Currie drag link and tie rod Mike. Our XJ's are similar in height and build. I've logged a lot of highway and off-road kms on this system. It's been used and abused. No signs of wear or damage thus far. I have no binding issue's at all.  Steering is still vague as before the mod; but it's a Jeep. I'm pleased with the Currie steering. I hope this helps.
