Quicker ratio steering?

[Stanz]

Curios if there are any options out there for improving the steering box ratio for the D2? It’s my main gripe with driving the rig. Takes a lot of wheel spinning to navigate tight turns despite the short wheel base

I don't see that as an improvement. Having a higher steering ratio is an advantage for low speed off-road driving. If you think turning the wheel of a D2 is hard, just try driving a Series I.

It’s not about ease of turns, it’s about number of revolutions lock to lock

Piece of cake, make your own (longer) Pitman arm.
Honestly, I have never, ever, needed steering quicker, but - to each his/her/their own

Steering Ball ????
Or yeah custom longer pitman or steering box swap to what who knows maybe a D1 as I don't ever have that issue.

Get the ball and save thousands of dollars!

Shorten the 29mm steering stops to 23mm to decrease turning radius by 1.5 meters.

i already did that. I’m asking because I also have a classic bronco. A common mod on them is to either modify the existing steering box or buy an aftermarket one to drop the lock to lock turns from 7 to 4…. less spinning the wheel to get to lock to lock… was hoping to do the same with the D2

Nope.
