I noticed my Jeep wanderg some when I bought it. It has not gotten worse over the last 3 months, but neither has it gotten better. After thinking about it, I decided to have the steering box replaced per the present TSB.

I picked the Jeep up today and all I can say is WOW! No wandering at all..most nearly perfect. If you have a JL that wanders on the highway, I would recommend trying this new steering box. Mine wandered a little and it made a really noticeable difference. If yours wanders badly, this box might be a Godsend.

Glad to hear your report and also glad that I got my JT's box changed.

FWIW, I just had the longer LCAs from MOPAR installed and between the steering box and the LCAs, it is now just about perfect. It seems to me the longer LCAs should be installed as standard equipment along with the new steering box. The combo might even make the ex BMW owners happy! 😈 😈 😈

By Longer LCA's I am guessing you mean the ones for the 2"lift? Did you install them without any lift?

I've heard of a few folks on the Gladiator forum installing the longer Mopar control arms to add castor to the front, improving handling.

I was also having the wandering issue and they installed the new box. Big improvement.
