how bad is it? I assume you mean the steering box is cracking the framerail? If you caught it early enough so can weld up any cracks, and get inner and outer plates and a steering box brace that braces it to the opposite side framerail as well. C-ROK sells an awesome inner and outer plate for the steering box, and companies such as Rusty's sell a brace

you keep doing stuff and adding things to it that make it less practical for driving on a daily basis, you even tell people it's getting less practical as a daily driver yet you still drive it anyway.

When your XJ is an example for your drivetrain class because of bad u-joints on both drivelines, play in the slip yoke, not to mention leaks.

YKYDAXJW you look under your Jeep as you're walking up to it and don't see any fresh drips so you immediately think "Aw crap... my Transfer case needs fluid again."

I can't wait till I finish building this new case and swap it in.
