Jeeps are like women, they always have something for you to do.
Is you steering bracket flexing or are your bolts loose?

Bracket flexing. I have the bolts on the frame tightened to the brink of busting. It was driven with no pump til I got it. I think the force needed to turn the wheel stressed it. I think. Any good brackets out there? Should I get a brace as well? The heater core has me scratching my head. I'll dive in tomorrow!

yea I think a brace is a good idea. Someone here had a link to a good looking one not to long ago, but I don't remember who.
I have a new HD bracket here somewhere you can have cheap. I'll see if I can find it tomorrow. It's in my extra jeep stuff somewhere in the garage.

found the brace I was thinking of http://www.jeep-cj.com/forums/f19/steering-box-custom-support-9635/
It says it's for an earlier cj but they might have one for our years.
By the way, glad to here the hei did the trick

Yes. That's the type of brace I like best. An ounce of prevention beats a pound of cure. You don't want to wait for the gearbox to rip off the frame rails.found the brace I was thinking of http://www.jeep-cj.com/forums/f19/steering-box-custom-support-9635/

Thanks guys! Oldy, look for me, I'll buy it, busa, getting a brace too. I love this forum!!!!!
If you have trouble, almost all of which will allow you to use General Motors distributor cap, rotor, coil, ignition module as an alternative. The real difference is the metal part of the distributor itself. And cheaper version of the problem is in the dealer's bottom gear.Tera Gold...
