Product Description
The PSC SK689R36JP3-8.0W-1.375 Cylinder Assist Steering Kit is engineered specifically for Jeep Gladiator JT and Wrangler JL models equipped with the 3.6L non-eTorque engine. Designed for vehicles running larger tires and demanding off-road conditions, this PSC steering upgrade dramatically improves steering control, reduces steering effort, and increases durability when tackling rocks, trails, and extreme terrain. This complete hydraulic assist system uses a weld-on cylinder mount for 8.0 AFM axles and 1.375 tie rod steering setups, allowing the system to apply additional hydraulic force directly to the steering linkage. The result is improved steering precision and reduced load on the factory steering gearbox. PSC Motorsports is widely recognized in the off-road industry for producing some of the most reliable hydraulic steering systems available. This kit is built for enthusiasts running oversized tires, beadlocks, upgraded suspension systems, and aggressive trail setups where factory steering components struggle. Whether you're building a dedicated trail Jeep or upgrading your Gladiator for serious rock crawling, the PSC SK689R36JP3-8.0W-1.375 system delivers the steering strength and control required for extreme off-road environments.
