STEERING BOOST KIT [JL/JT-compatible]

Kit Option: Boost Kit With Cooler - SKU X02-04-002 ($385)

TURN UP THE PRESSURE ON YOUR STOCK JEEP JL/JT ELECTRIC STEERING PUMP!
With aftermarket performance parts and harder offroad use, the stock pressures and lack of cooling ability become an issue. We have found that the factory power steering is capable of running at a higher pressure with ease.

The Apex Boost Kit allows for a retune of the factory blowoff valve so we can increase steering power by 40%. While this is good news, more power = more heat and the factory system was barely acceptable. This is why a power steering cooler is included. This boost kit MUST be used with a cooler to operate correctly. Customers who purchase the standalone kit are responsible for installing a compatible cooler.

COMPATIBLE WITH JEEP JL AND JT - 2.0L, 3.6L, 392, AND DIESEL MODELS

WHAT DOES THE STEERING BOOST KIT FIX?

  • No more stalled steering when it’s sub-freezing temperatures.

  • Smooth steering in parking lots on hot days.

  • Proper steering feel while in sand dunes.

  • Less feedback from terrain inputs.

  • Easy steering while aired down.

Overall it feels like stock but no more steering issues regarding power.

 

[Note: this product is not designed to address steering slop due to aluminum steering box issues]

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE RE: INSTRUCTIONS:  Installation instructions for the boost kit and cooler are based on the most common engine options of the 3.6 and 2.0 turbo. The steering systems are the same on all models and that is what the instructions focus on. 

There may be some variation on what needs to be removed to gain access to the pump on diesel and 392 models. If needed, look at pump removal instructions provided by MOPAR. It's unlikely this will be required as it's pretty obvious what to remove.

Frequently asked questions

What should I set my pressure at?

The pressure on the Apex Boost Kit should always be set at 2000 PSI. We have found this pressure provides the best overall performance and most reliable functionality.

BUT CAN IT HANDLE MY HUGE TIRES?

The answer is yes! The boost kit will work with any size tire and have great improvements. A 39” tire is about the largest tire where most to all issues will be solved.

40s you may see some sticking while aired down on high traction surfaces. It’s still a great improvement and with one of the many ram assists available, you will have all the power you need.

Not the worst install. Helps if you have small hands when installing the cooler fasteners. We “hired” a child for that part. The install was slightly different from the instruction and the available videos as mine is a diesel but if you’re not an idiot you’ll figure it out easily based on the information provided.

Works great, I can actually steer my 37s when they’re deflated now.
