Just some vibration issued. Nothing like freakin’ D.W.! Not even close. Checked my ball joints and all my other connection points are tight. Generally if you’re running oversized tires you replace everything connecting your steering because if you don’t all your “calibrations” are thrown way the hell off.

I put a zone stabilizer on when I got my 3″ zone lift. Huge difference.

Jim

Why do they even put them on stock is the question.

Jake

So you have to buy more crap… but don’t lie… we buy -everything- eventually, Jim. ?

Jim

To dampen your steering parts so they don’t where out and get DW.

While driving, when your front tires hit a bump, pothole, debris, etc. the steering stabilizer is there to perform the job of the other shocks,…kinda. Instead of it “dampening” the “up & down” stroke of the tires, it manages the “side to side” aspect. They also reduce steer wander.
Yes. You should have one. If your oem leaks, replace it.
My rule of thumb is that you replace them when you replace shocks and NEVER with a Rancho! They are prone to leakage. I have Fox, and love them. They are pricey, but more than worth it.

Rancho has hella good reviews on Amazon and lifetime warranty though????

Rob

My experience with Rancho says otherwise. And “lifetime warranty”?? How many times do you want to replace it? Myself, once, and done. Rancho was a so-so shock/stabilizer when they came out. Quality was…lacking. Monroe purchased them, and not much has changed. Seals blow out, leak oil if you off-road at all.
That being said, that’s MY experience over the past 30+ years. Maybe you’ll have better luck.

$47 Monroe…Amazon

So what brand did we decide to AVOID. And which to buy?
