Sorry, nobody makes that.

Is there one made for the M38A1?

Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
Sorry, there is not.

Is there a tightsteer that will fit our 1967 CJ5 V6 dauntless 225?

Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
Sorry, no. Not currently.

Will this fit an M38A1?

Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
Sorry, it will not.

Does this fit 1964 Willy's Wagon with 230 tornado 4WD?

hi! have you one for m38a-1? how much for sending it to Canada? thank you! Michel.A

Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
Sorry, these will not work for the M38A1.

My steering box # TL122992-B I believe that my 1961 Willys Wagon may have a variety of front end steering components. What steering box is this for sure? I have several hundred dollars in parts just in this order and want to get the right ones. Thanks for your help...again!

Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
If you can please measure the diameter of your sector shaft. Email mike@kaiserwillys.com Happy to help.

Will this fit a 1960 Station Wagon 226 4WD the instructions say only 2WD

Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
Yes, this kit will fit the 4WD models. Thanks

It says with 6-226....can this be used with the 4-134?

Willys Tech:
716100 is the part number your looking for.

How and where does this part attach to steering? I am replacing front shocks and adding a steering stablizer.What else can I do to correct the play and willys wobble?

Willys Tech:
This goes inside the steering gear box with the worm gear. I would suggest part number: SJ-7100 as well.

Will this fit my '61 FC-170? It has a Ross steering box.

Willys Tech:
As long as you have the same 1 diamter sector shaft used by the Willys Truck and Staion waon.

Will this work on 1967 jeepster?

Willys Tech:
No the Jeepster used a different gear box. This is for the vehicles listed above only.
