Default Steering box replaced x2

I had a puddle of fluid on top. Didn't seem to fill but everytime cleaned it would come back. The dealer replaced and the new one leaked like crazy. Guess what? The replacement was defective. In the shop tonight for a new one tomorrow. Hope it's not from the same batch. We'll see.

I went through that same thing in my TJ. Took them 4 or 5 replacements before they got one that didn't leak or wasn't horribly out of adjustment. Those were reman. boxes though...I'd assume the JK ones are brand new, right?

Yes it was new and the new one is coming from the same batch (I asked) but that hwere they come from so I may be doing a multi trip also until they get a new shipment.
