I believe that the V6 used the same stearing box as the M38A1, & my
parts catalogs list the same repair kit part number for the CJ F4, the
V6 & the M38A1 so you should be good to go.
Other things to check are the ball sockets in the draglink, the pitman
arm (ball) and, of course, the sector shaft pins. These are all
subject to wear, as I found out after putting in a couple of bellcanks
kits :(. I finally replaced them all & it made a world of differance.
The Ross box setup works fine if you get the slop out of all the

subject to wear, as I found out after putting in a couple of bellcanks
kits :(. I finally replaced them all & it made a world of differance.
The Ross box setup works fine if you get the slop out of all the

Re: Steering Bell Crank and parts 1967 CJ5 V6
Thanks for the info Howard...
I know the Bell Crank is junk due to the fact that there are groves in
the ball from someone tightening down too tight on the fixing screw, the
one that holds it to the steering shaft.
Another thing, the main thing, I noticed is that there are no bushings
on either side of the shaft, every manual and shaft kit shows 2 of them,
mine has none. Needless to say, the crank moves up and down before it
move front and back... which equals slop.
I will check out these other sites as my quest, for now, is to leave it
as stock as possible.
