I understand exactly what you mean gmwillys. It is a "Band-Aid". It seems to have a good theory however. Unlike a steering stabilizer which is usually installed for the wrong reasons, this might provide a fairly good solution to what is going on. There are three machined "pads" on the back of the lever arm where they touch the adjusting screw during the steering sweep. On mine the middle wore down until correct adjustment made the end pads interfere. This device changes the design a bit. Now spring pressure provides the end play control for the lever arm. The draw back I see is the spring will always allow some compression of the shaft and hence end play. Under hard loads the end play is still there. If you use the O.E. parts and adjust correctly, the end play is going to be as set by the set screw regardless of load unlike the spring in the tough steer.

New parts set up properly is the right way no doubt, if you want it to perform the way it used to on rough terrain especially. I think though this device might be OK in what I am doing. I think this Jeep is done running on the real rough stuff! I know..... poor garage Jeep.
