That is not a "stabilizer", it is the "power assist"cylinder. That was an early form of power steering. The hydraulic ram helped to push the linkage in the direction of your in-put.
A true "stabilizer" is just a "shock absorber" that has an equally balanced push/pull rate.
You cannot "just nix" the cylinder w/o changing the steering box too. A power steering system is much harder to steer when the power is gone. The "power assist" is not as bad, but it would still be difficult to drive that way.

The great thing about being a pessimist is that you are either pleasantly surprised or right.
