You should drill out the internal restrictor port on the XJ high pressure coupler. If you look at the inside of the WJ coupler, it's a much larger diameter than the XJ coupler. The restrictor on the XJ coupler can be safely drilled out to match the WJ coupler's internal diameter for even better flow. Also, heater hose isn't oil or pressure resistant since it's designed for coolant vs hydraulic fluid. 1/2" transmission cooler hose is a much better application for this. Power steering fluid won't break down trans cooler hose and it will withstand up to 400psi.

@nextweeksadventure Год назад

New info I've just received is heater hose could fail. I've ordered correct hose and will make a short video asap to talk about the correction. I apologize for the confusion in this. I was mislead in my hose choice.

@ingluv Год назад

After I did the Durango steering box upgrade, i have seen that it may not be a true upgrade, I have been very happy with mine, but supposedly it has bronze bushings instead of roller bearings for the sector shaft. Also, I found a minimal loss in turning angle at full turn but that isn't really an issue for me. The tires rubbed the LCAs a little at full turn, so that was almost a plus. Just wanted to mention what I found with my install. There is a lot of information online.

Thank you for this extremely helpful video! I successfully performed this swap a month ago on my XJ, and also replaced the box with a new BlueTop. It turns like butter. HOWEVER, I seem to have lost all return-to-center. I did the fitting drill out, but am not running hydro assist. Could this be the problem with the no-return-to-center? I’m thinking of going back to the pick-apart and nabbing another XJ fitting to see if the restriction or lack of with the WJ pump is the reason for the centering issue.

yea, i bet you are correct.?.. I might just pull a pressure regulator from the salvage yard and try it out... are the xj and wj pullies the same diameter ?

@nextweeksadventure Год назад

You swap pulleys from your old one to the new one from parts store. Cant say for sure on any size difference.

@michaelhunt4853 Год назад

Yes but is the v8 crank pulley the same size as the i6. I know ford used the same pump for several vehicles and pulleys were matched. That way pressure and flow were good at idle and wouldn’t over heat at high rpm’s. But if you pump was shot just a new pump might be a huge difference

@seanmacdonald8476 Год назад

Thanks for the vid! Have you seen the ironman4x4 steering brace? I just replaced my steering box and am slowly adding parts to see what's making what difference. First box, next brace, and finally if I'm not satisfied I will throw in the WJ pump I snagged from the JY. If I install I will go with the same no drill method you did for the high pressure fitting. So much conflicting info out there it's hard to navigate, will be interested to see more of your experience

@nextweeksadventure Год назад

I've looked into the brace system but I've heard its needed for 35in tires. I run a 33. At some point I'll probly add one just to be safe and not rip the front end apart just in case.

@seanmacdonald8476 Год назад

@@nextweeksadventure For real, IMO if you're wheeling it and you don't have frame stiffies then the brace is a no brainer even with 33's the weight of the vehicle is what's going to put all the pressure through the drag link onto the box while you're bouncing. Have you gotten the thing crossed up yet since the swap? Lots of people report blowing high pressure lines. I went with duralast for that juicy warranty lol even tho I'm going to likely buy another to carry as a spare

Mine is a 98. You will have to swap your original port into the new pump. I'm not 100% sure if the older models are different than the 98 but I think they are the same. This new pump is only different in size due to running the ps and a fan which requires more flow

You should drill out the pressure side fitting to a 1/8 hole

@wjonthetrail Год назад

You can drill the hole a little bigger but be careful not too much or you will lose your pressure Only increase by a 1/8” of a inch overall diameter But the best results will come from just adding a shim underneath that spring increasing the pressure a thin washer works wonders Then I would recommend a cooler be placed in line As you will be working the pump harder creating more heat The cooler will help and give you a little more volume of oil to work with

@lol123321123321 Год назад

Do you have more details? What size shim and where to install? I'm using a 8 row transmission cooler for my power steering so I'm not worried about over heating the p/s fluid. I drive a manual. I driller my p/s pressure line out just marginally so it flows better but better steering when bound up comes from higher pressure, not flow.

@DJKittrell Год назад

Did you use the standard 3/8-16 bolt that comes with most puller kits to install the pulley? I cannot get it to thread in for the life of me. It threads into the XJ pump no problem. I even happen to have a 2000 WJ in the garage and it won’t thread into that ps pump either. I am stumped.

@nextweeksadventure Год назад

So what I did was screw in one of the tiny adapters into the pump then screw the larger stud with the end for your wrench over the top of the smaller one. Then you screw the "nut" looking piece all the way down till it hits the pulley. Slap a socket on it like the video making sure to use a screwdriver to stop the pulley from spinning and giver the beans to set the pulley. I hope this makes sense. If not drop me an email nextweeksadventure@gmail.com and I'll try to send pics to you.

@DJKittrell Год назад

@@nextweeksadventure Thank you for the quick reply. I do know how to use the installer. The problem I am having is the "tiny adapter" you are referring to is typically a 3/8-16 bolt, which I have no issues screwing into the old XJ pump. However, it will not thread into the WJ pump I swapped in, nor the pump on my actual WJ. Do you recall what pulley kit you have? I can look it up to see if maybe it has more adapter sizes than the one I have. I've had no issues using it on an XJ or ZJ, but it just doesn't seem to want to work for the WJ.

@@nextweeksadventure yeah it's a 4.7 V8 , and I got rid of that bull crap stupid dumb over heating piece of junk garbage --- okay I'll stop. I put a clutch fan and a electric fan on it and got better gas mileage ironically lol , basically I blew up my power steering pump stuck on a mountain on a cross country trip when I desided to deviate off the garmon trail and I was stuck and doin the wiggle to get out of the snow and the pump locked up on me so I drove literally 3000 miles without power steering and no radiator fan , so I went back to a steel pulley xj pump (that wouldn't shatter on me on a mountain)

@@nextweeksadventure fun fact a zip tie across the crank pulley to the water pump will last you exactly 30 mi and then if he replace it it'll last another 30 mi on the highway

At first I said “modification doesn’t mean bolt on” And then I realized for an XJ this is basically plug and play so nevermind.

About the only reason you would need extra volume is if you added hydraulic assist cylinder So more volume is what you would get BUT TO MUCH AND YOUR PUMP WONT BE HAPPY IT WILL JUST FOAM YOUR OIL BUT ADDING A SHIM OR DIFFERENT SPRING TO INCREASE YOUR OPERATING PRESSURE CAN BE VERY BENEFICIAL

Bolt on means take off and bolt new back on. Your title should say don't do this, there are better upgrades. I believe the Dodge Durango bolts right on and is a real upgrade and can run one ton axles. Look into that swap before committing to this one. I'm not sure but radiator hoses get soft when oil runs through them. I would check to make sure power steering fluid won't degrade the hose. Also I've ran 6 years on 33's with my stock power steering pump. It's my daily driver and rock crawler. Been to Moab many times, I've got 4.56 gears, lockers, the whole package. I have not needed to make the upgrade. When I do I'll look into the Durango upgrade. If it's not broke don't upgrade with iffy RU-vid I need a video this week recommendations.

I believe the swap your talking about is the Durango gear box swap. The power steering pumps are not the same so thats not a option. The power steering pump swap I did is exactly what bolt on according to your definition is. Old broken unit off new better unit on. I also made a follow-up on my mistake with the hose. I make videos to show people ideas for their own projects and help them make decisions on what route they wish to take. Nice try showing up to shit on my channel but you can keep floating down the stream trolling along. 👍
