There are reviews and internet claims it tightens up the factory steering and takes out all the slop completely (if your box is tight, your arms are tight, and the rest of the system is gtg).

My steering appears to be as tight as it was from the factory, but that still leaves something to be desired with larger tires at speed. What's "good" in a CJ doesn't actually compare to even cars of the same era. I'm not looking for BMW steering, but I'd like to loose that 1.5" slop if I can. It's $100, so I'm going to jump if no one knows anything about these sealed steering bearings. I will report back once I test drive it.

I’ve got one. Very high quality.

I just ordered one. My steering is also good (as it can be with stock stuff). But this looks like to could even improve it a bit more. A CJ with all good steering/suspension parts is still not modern "rack & pinion" good with a suspension lift and larger tires at highway speeds where I spend a lot of time commuting. I easily do 70+ with no issues, but there is still some minor play/vibration I'd love to reduce. Hoping this adds to the pleasure.
