The steering is quite sloppy on the jeep. I'm OK with that - but tighter would be better. Today, heading up St. Vrain Canyon I would notice a slight catch in the steering wheel. Just coming off of top center there would be a slight catch when turning the steering wheel. I'm thinking this is steering box related vs other steering/suspension components (but my diagnostic abilities are in question these days).

If I were to do something with the steering box - are there repair kits available (that are worthwhile) or should I look at replacing it?

Any diagnostic test I should do first?
