I need to swap a power steering setup into my CJ5. I know that there are a few different boxes etc. that will work. Who's swapped what in, and what has worked for you?

I currently have a Wrangler Tilt steering column to get me started (with shaft).

What should I be looking for at the junkyard?

THanks,
Andrew
 
You will need the brackets for the pump, the pump itself, and a 3 bolt saginaw steering box.
 
I pulled a J-10 box, pump, and shaft for my 80 CJ-5. everything bolted on except the shaft, had to shorten it. Go ahead and buy a good box mount, like M.O.R.E or Big Daddy. If you don't, you'll be pulling it back apart. I've heard J-20 boxes bolt on and have more power than the J-10 i am using. Compared to manual steering with 35's and lockers, I am very happy with the J-10 stuff.
 
J truck

I was wondering about the Jtrucks. Local yard crushed a J10 with T18/D20, and the power steering stuff on it. Same day I went there to tell them I'd take the tranny.
 
Alright

I can get my hands on stuff from a 1995 Wrangler with a 4 cylinder. Any of that stuff worth having?
