Who out there will be upgrading their steering with this kit?

[sassinator]

I got mine in back in January... one my most favorite mods... this should have been standard from Jeep... props to synergy for the bracket.

I ordered the synergy brace and drag link and track bar at the same time and the track bar and drag link are on back order but the brace showed up. I installed it and am blown away with how effective it is. It has resolved all my steering issues and death wobble. it's nice to be able to drive straight down the highway now. Since the day I drove my JL off the lot the steering has been terrible.

I like TJs demeanor and approach to making these sensible and useful videos. Knowledge, a dash of verve, and attention to detail.

My JK's steering was like that. I can't believe they didn't fix that problem. That's Chrysler for ya!

[MarkR]

Great installation video, instructions and specs will be very helpful for anyone following along while preforming this installation! Thank you!

[jakeapplegate]

This shouldn't be a "mod" should be a recall!

Great video. I'm a new first time Wrangler owner. I've had my 2020 JL for two weeks now. I test drove 4 of them before ending up with the one I now own. The first Sport S I drove was work to drive. It didn''t wander, it hunted! The steering was very loose. The next one was a little better. Then I drove a red Willys. The steering was much improved over the 1st two. Time I got back from the test drive another customer had closed the deal on it. However the dealer got me a Willys in billet silver with much better options 3 day's later. Of all the JL's I drove, mine has the best steering. Not perfect! But much much better. You would think Jeep/Chrysler would take care of the loose steering issue so the customer does not have to look into a mod to improve the steering. Other than that, I'm loving my Wrangler! Thanks for making this video.

Thanks for posting. This is on my build list.

I installed this within a month of the wife getting her new 2020 JL Diesel. She noticed the difference right away. I highly recommend lots of Loctite on the Synergy pinion arm nut.

Thwre is a TSB that Jeep replaces your aluminum steering gear box to a steel one under warranty and it totally fixes the issue

[BlindIo]

Great video, thank you for including the sizes ans torque specs!

[mraymer]

yup. we are ordering this for our Jeep

[michaelfrick]

Excellent demo! Will do this upgrade today on my JK. Kudos to Synergy mfg for their excellent engineering and part quality.

[jimschneller]

Just purchased Gladiator Rubicon. Will definitely be looking at this upgrade. Thanks for the info and video.

A guty talked about how there is a gear slop adjustment on steering unit & u want 6mm kind of same thing in the rear gears 6 thousands. The new steering boxes from jeep r going to b heavier like Ram steering unit that is able to drop n up grade & is 30% bigger. The older boxes were light aluminum & movement in the bolts on in side was also contributing factor. So new steering box adjusted tighter in spec, the synergy bracket, track bar flip on top instead of bottom. Min 2.5" bar solid not hollow like stock, & most of all the angle of drag link has to perfectly match the other control arm angle. Aligned & tight working replaceable better stronger ball joints that don't wear slam out in 30k +miles.

I added this and I recomemd everything jl or jt add this even if you don't do anything else.

[thependleyadventure]

Wow. I can’t believe the steering box moved that much. I will be doing this to my gladiator asap.

[calisox]

My steering was perfect until I had a Rock Krawler lift installed. Steering felt really loose and shifty. I ordered this bracket and the Synergy track bar so hopefully that fixes the probelm.
