Rugged Ridge HD Steering Kit W/ Damper 84-06 Jeep XJ ZJ TJ

The Rugged Ridge HD Steering Kit with Damper is a heavy-duty, bolt-on upgrade designed for 1984-2006 Jeep XJ, ZJ, and TJ models. Crafted from true DOM steel tubing with a 1-1/4 inch outer diameter and a 1/4 inch wall thickness, this kit offers exceptional strength and durability without seams or welds that could fail. The heavy-duty 7/8 inch rod ends feature tapered ends to fit stock knuckle applications, providing one-ton strength capabilities without requiring modifications to existing steering components. The included damper enhances stability and control during off-road wheeling, making this a robust solution for larger tires and aggressive driving conditions.

This steering upgrade is compatible with Jeep XJ, ZJ, and TJ models from 1984 to 2006, specifically for vehicles with stock or mildly lifted suspensions. It is designed for off-road use, particularly wheeling with larger tires, and serves as a direct bolt-on replacement for factory steering components. The kit does not work with Factory Rubicon wheels and is not recommended for vehicles with over 4 inches of lift or with smaller OEM steel wheels or deep backspacing wheels. Installation is straightforward, requiring no modifications to steering knuckles, and the kit includes all necessary components for a secure, heavy-duty upgrade.
