Product Description
Upgrade the steering capability of your classic Jeep with the PSC SG062R BIG BORE XD Cylinder Assist Steering Gear Box, engineered specifically for 1980-1986 Jeep CJ5, CJ7, and CJ8 Scrambler models. Designed for serious off-road performance, this heavy-duty steering gearbox features a larger piston diameter to deliver significantly increased steering torque—ideal for vehicles running oversized tires, locking differentials, and demanding trail conditions. Unlike remanufactured steering boxes, the PSC SG062R is built using 100% new components and a fully machined housing designed for reliability and durability in extreme environments. Cylinder assist ports are machined directly into the housing to accept -6AN hydraulic fittings, allowing seamless integration with PSC hydraulic steering assist systems while reducing the risk of fitting failure under heavy loads. The variable steering ratio provides precise control on the street while maintaining the torque needed to navigate technical rock trails and off-road obstacles. Billet aluminum top and end covers further enhance strength and durability, making this steering gear a trusted upgrade for Jeep builders, off-road enthusiasts, and professional fabricators.
