Anyone if there is bolt in box with more steering angle than the Jeep box? I have the tall spindles and am looking to get a tighter turning circle.

Jiml82-can the stops be cut down in the box to give it more swing?

My information indicates that the Jeep power steering gear has as much or more pitman shaft travel than any of the other Saginaw power gears. I don't think that there is anything more that you can do to increase the travel.

You might consider a longer pitman arm and the equivalent longer idler arm to increase the relay rod travel for the same pitman shaft angle.
