2006 steering gear box replacement options for RHD

Yep, I'm not sure you're going to find it for much cheaper than $500 unfortunately. Let us know if you do, but I'd be very surprised if you do!

I'll let you know what I find.

I'll let you know what I find.

I look forward to it!

I hope one of these pan out.

I know West Texas Offroad rebuilds them. You could give them a shout. One guy I wheel with has been sending various boxes to them over the years and he speaks very highly of them.

I apologize. I didn't realize it was for a RHD vehicle.

It's cool. I actually managed to get an old one from a friend. I'm gonna tear into it tonight and see if I can't get the bearings from a machine shop. I can't be the only one with this issue. I'll post what I find

Good luck! Hope you get it fixed and wish you the best of luck!!!!

I found a thread over on JF where you found Lares had a steering box called "Rock Crawler" that was a durango box with the bushings removed and bearings put in its place. Did you ever get your hands on one? They have one on Rock Auto for $300.

Sorry for the hijack OP

I didn't. PSC has the reman stuff back again with ports for hydro assist so I've been using them with tolerable success on some builds.

Not sure if Jegs would have one but they are running a 10% off for Memorial Day this weekend. Got the email last night and I know they have a dedicated Jeep section.
