Description


Steering Box Brace (for use with "Big Box" Mopar Upgrade)

These braces are designed to help the sector shaft on steering box from flexing when turning the steering wheel. This in turn will tighten up your steering wheel feel and stop a lot of the road wondering, plus saves your box from prematurely wearing out or breaking due to negative offsets, lift kits, & offroad tire stress.

Compatibility:

  • 2003-2009 Dodge 2500/3500 4X4 -- with larger 1.25" shaft - Mopar "Big Box" Upgrade"
  • Features:

  • Made in USA, including the bolts

  • Steering Box Braces - More Good Information from Bad Axe, Inc.:

    These braces are designed to help the sector shaft on the steering box from flexing when turning the steering wheel. This will tighten up your steering wheel feel and stop a lot of the road wandering. The braces will also save your steering box from prematurely wear, or breakage due to negative offsets, lift kits, & offroad tire stress. Unlike most braces, these units are designed around using stock and aftermarket sway bars like Thuren or Carli.

    People advertise that these will solve all your steering issues, well folks that is not true. The one thing the manufacturer promises is that this will save your steering box from wearing out fast and prevent a selector shaft failure.

    The competition manufactures a one-size-fits-all brace for 2003-2024 model Ram trucks by adding massive slotted holes to allow fitment. Bad Axe designed six different braces to allow for custom fitment for your specific application.
