This is not a stock-photo listing, as condition varies greatly—especially regarding oil leaks, rust, and whether the unit is OEM or aftermarket. If I do come across an aftermarket part, I can assure you it was purchased pre-COVID, when aftermarket quality was generally much better than what is available today.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEach steering box will have its own personalized video.

I will note which model each box came from so you know exactly what you are purchasing and can choose your preference.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe pitman arm, if included, on XJ boxes has approximately a 3-3\/4-inch drop, while the ZJ pitman arm has approximately a 4-3\/4-inch drop. These are interchangeable, and the ZJ pitman arm is often a useful upgrade for the XJ platform.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 1984–2001 XJ steering box appears not to have changed. I believe the 1996–2001 pumps had lower pressure to slow the steering down during the SUV rollover concerns of the 1990s—but that is a video for another day!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAccording to the person who buys all of my core boxes, 1993–1995 ZJ boxes have a slower ratio, which means more overall power assist. He says the 1996–1998 boxes use the same ratio as the ZJ boxes. I cannot confirm this as fact; it is simply what I was told.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI am working on a core-return system to buy back your old, leaky, or failed steering box. It may take a little time to establish, but if my price is not as low as another online source, the core-return value may help offset the difference. Plus, you get a personalized video of the exact part you are purchasing! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- After talking to my core buyer, his offer is $25 per box. Return shipping cost will usually be a $20-40 cost for me to include a return shipping label for you. The best I can do is give you a shipping label for you to send your old box back if you feel like it, or if not I understand.  That decision is up to you, I don't make or loose any more or less money either way. - Dex - 9-18-2026 \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Need The Power Steering Box Bolts Or Spacer - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.dexjs.com\/products\/steering-box-bolts-for-jeep-cherokee-xj-all-models?utm_source=copyToPasteBoard\u0026amp;utm_medium=product-links\u0026amp;utm_content=web\"\u003eCLICK HERE\u003c\/a\u003e for XJ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Need the Upgraded Power Steering Box Bolts off ZJ's  - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.dexjs.com\/products\/zj-steering-box-bolts-xj-upgrade-bolts-1993-1998?utm_source=copyToPasteBoard\u0026amp;utm_medium=product-links\u0026amp;utm_content=web\"\u003eCLICK HERE\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e- SB-987 - 99 XJ - OEM Pump \u0026amp; Gearbox \u003cbr\u003e- Off a Running \u0026amp; Driving Jeep!! -SEE VIDEO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e -SB-986 - MORE COMING SOON!!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DeXJ's","offers":[{"title":"SB-987 - 99 XJ","offer_id":54491961164089,"sku":"SB-987-99XJ","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"SB-986 -","offer_id":54492380070201,"sku":null,"price":111.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"SB-985 -","offer_id":54492380102969,"sku":null,"price":111.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0820\/5379\/2057\/files\/2D8B6C57-EF27-48BD-9ACA-F65C1A2FB465.jpg?v=1789673086","url":"https:\/\/www.dexjs.com\/products\/power-steering-gear-box-oem-jeep-cherokee-grand-cherokee-xj-zj","provider":"DeXJ's","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
