Steering stabilizer

[panda24619]

it connects to the frame and steering linkage. jeeps have them. but theirs connect to them on the axle. and i know i love the rain. but my lead foot sucks with cars coming. haha o well. and i dont think our trucks had them i know excursions had them. well some of them.

well i found a rough country one at jcwhitney for 63 bucks shipped. thinking about getting it cuz i cant stand that damn shimmy anymore. it just started happening. and i think im gonna cut my brown wire if it stops raining tomorrow cuz i cant get that damn vibration to go away when i turn. it gets worse the sharper i turn so im thinking its the A4WD engaging. i have no idea. gonna post in the other section.

im gonna get one too. cause i have a shimmy from when my truck was in that accident years ago. and you could cut the wire then extent the wire into the cab and hook it to a switch. itll be nice to able to have 4wd in the cab instead of going out and reconnecting the wire.

well from what i am reading on the forum, you still hav 4wd hi and lo, just no A4wd, which i am okay with. dont need it. if i am in a bind where i think i will need it, i can just run 4hi.

 

[panda24619]

yeah me too. i nvr use 4awd unless in weather like this. like my gf took my keys to go do errons and i made sure she put it in 4awd. i put in on b4 she left. dont need her skidding out on the freeway. haha

KWT,
is your shimmy gone? also, this hooks to the frame and the suspension correct? so this thing mounts pretty quickly correct? also, do we have one of these OEM on our trucks? is it located behind the skid plate? sorry for all the questions but its raining like hell here and my truck doesnt fit in the garage so....

yes the shimmy is gone and so is the bump steer from the larger tires... and it bolts to the rear suspension cross member and to the steering linkage

well, finally got it installed. pain in the....had to "customize" the bracket a little because of the lift kit but other than that. one of the bolts going throught the lift kit was a ******. thank god for PB and air tools!
