steering stabilizer??

[NOVAhoe]

So ive heard somewhere that you can put steering stabilizers on these trucks, is that so? i found a kit on zone off road but it only comes up when i search 99 pickup, and it says it fits 00 and up tahoes and yukons, for some reason a lot of companies don't know that a 99 yukon exists, they stop at 98 lol

It is because they do not put enough effort into the application guide.

aha so it is true! lol for some reason i couldnt comprehend on how in hell they would put a steering stabilizer on ifs, but then i realized hey something has to go from the steering box to the tie rods haha duhh

also it says oem replacement, do 2500s have them from the factory or something?

btw you get your truck runnin yet?

Nope. I will have to forgo the oil priming but I still have no extra muscle to wrangle the parts in place.

The application problem is mainly because of the body style switch that happens in the trucks. Everyone used that as an across the board reference to not do it right until the suv's caught up.

May just have to cranks with no fuel or ignition a bit. Still don't think that is enough.

so does this thing really help and how hard is it to put on the vehicle?
sorry for sorta taking this thread a little i hope you dont mind if it bothers you i can create a separate thread, but i have also wondered exactly what this is for?

Shock bolts to brackets which u-bolt themselves to steering linkage.

i know that if you wont have much bump steer anymore, the steering will be a little easier and smoother, and you can run bigger tires without feeling them when your turning haha, i had two of them on my jeep that was on 33s, it steered like a mercedes lol

When I do my lift, and new shocks, I'll add one to mine. I was told it makes it much smoother, prolly going to tighten the gear box too..... ohh the list goes on and on.

I had a bolt on Rancho unit when I was at stock height. Fit well, easy install
