Need to chase the threads on my rubicon steering box sector shaft. Just looking for confirmation on the thread size and pitch so I can get the proper die for the job. Did some research and found someone who said it’s 7/8-14 but they were talking about a zj box. Is this correct for our boxes as well? Thanks in advance!

If it is that size, I can verify here in a bit. I have 7/8-14 jam nuts for rod ends. If not, I'll have to do it the hard way.
 
Got it to work using a thread file. Pitch is definitely 14. Verified with a thread gauge. Not sure if 7/8 is the actual size.
