The steeringbox mounting pad and brackets on a Mopar K-member leave a lot to be desired when it comes to rigidity.
After some assessments I decided to weld a simple curved plate from the mountpad to the K-member.
The result already was a very noticable improvement in steering-response, which felt much tighter after the modification.
More reinforcing is still possible but that will be probably addressed at a later date.
