Review on πŸ”§ Rugged Ridge 18003.10 Steering Box Mount for 76-86 Jeep CJ5/CJ7/CJ8 Scrambler: Heavy Duty and Reliable by Jon Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very successful upgrade!

This steering column mount is sturdy and appears to be explosion proof. It's MUCH heavier than the flimsy factory mount. It's a little tricky to install if you have a winch plate covering the top two screws. It also has a heavy bolt that screws into the frame for extra stability, but my holes didn't quite line up; I had to widen the hole in the frame to secure it but it's worth it. My winch mounting plate used this hole, so instead of using the frame gusset that came with the kit, I attached a thru-bolt to the winch plate. All in all a very well made product and a worthwhile upgrade, especially if you are converting/replacing your steering gear.

Pros
  • Test for one year
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
