Product Description
The PSC SK689R36JP2-8.0W-1.25 Cylinder Assist Steering Kit is a complete hydraulic assist steering solution engineered for 2018-2020 Jeep Wrangler JL equipped with the 3.6L engine (non-eTorque). Designed specifically for high-stress off-road environments, this PSC system dramatically improves steering control when running large tires, beadlocks, and heavy trail armor. PSC’s hydraulic assist steering systems reduce steering load on the gearbox and steering linkage by adding a hydraulic steering cylinder that shares the steering force with the gearbox. This results in smoother steering input, reduced steering effort, and improved durability when tackling rock crawling, technical trails, or extreme off-road terrain. This kit features a weld-on 8.0 AFM axle mount and a 1.25" tie rod clamp mount, making it ideal for Wrangler JL builds running heavy-duty steering components and aftermarket suspension upgrades. PSC’s precision-engineered components ensure proper cylinder geometry and optimal steering response while maintaining reliability under severe off-road loads. Whether your Jeep is built for crawling, overlanding, or aggressive trail driving, the PSC cylinder assist steering kit delivers the hydraulic power needed to maintain precise steering control with oversized tires and locked axles.
