Default fabed up a steering box brace
Well, a few months ago at JAD i cracked my chassie right where the top bolt goes into the steering box.
I pulled it all apart and had it welded and a nice thick steel plate welded over the top so it would hopefully not crack again.It was then that i thought about GO JEEPS website and decided to fab up my own steering box brace.
I could have had one made, or imported one for $130 , but this only cost me my own labour and $25.
Its a little bit different to GO JEEPS with the size of the steel rod being a tad smaller, and the mounting a bit different, but appart from that , its what he wrote on his website.

Heres a few pics.
