I think i will install one of this.. for $150 not bad.. why not

my SUV is not lifted at all.. its all stock.. but it fell likes my SUV sway to much than normal.. i did change my shock front and rear and still does have that problem..

After i get my SUV back from the body shop and switch the front tire with SAME SIZE tire. i will try and see if i could install one of this steering stabilizer? maybe it will work with stock

i think this will work for me or even your SUV..

My truck felt like it wandered at highway speeds. I too inquired about a steering stab. Some of our trucks appear to have them from the factory, but mine didn't. I found a kit for $90CDN shipped. I like it. Stopped everything that bugged me. Holds dead center on the hwy. However, I'd like to point out that it doesn't fix bad steering parts. If there is a problem with pitman arm, idler arm, ball joints, tie-rod ends, wheel alignment, etc. Those should be fixed before installed a steering stab.

I did notice that one fella here welded his braket on to ensure a good connection, but mine was bolted on with the supplied bolts. The bolt holes and everything was already in the appropriate spots. My shop didn't have to fab anything, pretty much plug and play.

Would not hurt to disconnect them occasionally to catch problems early that they might be hiding.

I installed one, $50 bucks for it, then $50 to install it and weld the bracket to the chasis! I love it!

best money I spent. I feel dual shock is overkill on a stock ride height or close to it.

Does it need two.. one for each wheel?
