About a month ago i broke my stock SS and have been running without one ever since the fact. My jeep handles perfectly fine without a SS but i wanted to know if running without it will cause any issues later down the road, is it causing any premature wear or stress on steering components not having a SS?

Thanks for anyone's input.

No you will be fine. If anything you will notice when things, like ball joints, are worn out easier. You can fine stock SS on Craigslist for super cheap

since it helps smooth the oscillating effect of the tires I'd put another stock SS back in. IMO without it the job of the SS gets put on the drag link (steering box), tie rod and track bar.

That's what my concern is, drives perfect but i don't want to do any damage to other components.

I have heard that the rancho on is very similar to the stock one in terms of how it feels. Outside of that I don't know because I still run the stock one and will until I need hydro assist.
