Steering Stabilizer Choices
 
So,a few months ago while I was installing my lift kit on the 71 I was asking about steering stabilizers.I never ordered one because I wanted to wait and see how everything turned out suspension and tire wise.Now that I have the final wheels,tires & suspension on the truck its time to make the decision on a stabilizer.So,should I go with a single,dual inline,or dual stacked on top of each other stabilizer?
The truck has a 6" lift and 35s.
As far as the quality and price...Which has the best bang for the buck?
Oh,and in case someone here has one to sell,Im going to be posting a WTB in the parts board so keep an eye out;)

I voted for single. I'd go with a Skyjacker, but thats JMO.

Hate the double stacked, like the dual inline look, not sure if it's two are needed but I voted for that one...

For function you only need the single but the double looks cooler.....I voted the double cuz cool :metal: :metal: :metal:

The single on my K20 with 35"s seems to do the job. I've got a Rancho setup with the upgraded shock.

I say go with the double inline setup. Have heard good stuff about the skyjacker setups.

I have a single, have always run a single and have never had any issues. I had Ranchos in the past, but my new Pro Comp shocks came with a stabilizer, so we will see how well it does compared to the old setup.

I like the looks of the Dual Inline myself. Figure I'll go that route when get around to it.

my thoughts too. it is possible to over dampen, depending on the design.

Quit playing around and just install a hydro assist, then your done with it.

I thought of it before I even tore the truck down but decided against it because I wanted to keep it fairly original being a orginal shortbed 4x4...Hell,I didnt even order the lift kit thats on it,I ordered a 4" lift and found this one was 6" after everything was all tightened down.I wasnt dare going to take it back off and let the truck sit suspension-less till I got the correct one so I kept it.
