Default Steering Box Bolts Sheared Off!!!

Got mine back last weekend, Jeep supplied all the genuine parts & Wayne at Jeep Ford did the job because the local Jeep dealership didn't gave the skill set to carry out the repairs, drives great now & I won't have to worry about the steering box falling off again

Thanks Wally3218.
Looks like 3mm plate. Did they remove the spacer, or modify it ?

;edit;
sorry for the questions, I'm planing preventative maintenance.

Bruggz351 not sure about the spacer will check when I get under the jeep , there was talk off still using the spacer.
Only problem I had when picking up the jeep was the noise the steering box made due to air in the system , now it's all good.

Mine has just begun making frequent "PING" or "CRACK" noises upon steering all over again...

Over this issue - I'm not sure what to do now, dealing with Jeep is nails on chalkboard and the last two repairs have bought me a couple of years max...

Gee not what I wanted to hear Hamsteh , your repairs lasted a couple years hope mine last a lot longer.
The only thing the Dealership did with mine was to take it to the panel beaters and have them fix it after they found the parts.
I would of loved to have found out how much it had cost, might of been more than the Jeep market value.
