Default Has anyone experienced issues with the steering box?

Hey fellas,

Has anyone had any issues with the steering box in the JK? Probably a different box being RHD though I'm guessing.

More to the point has anyone found it to be the cause/culprit to their shimmy/death wobble?

Thanks

Yom my steering box was replaced only after 15000Ks there was a little play in the steering so got it replaced. Might be the culprit.. You are still under warranty and if you notice any abnormal or even little play in you steering get it replaced.
