I wish I would have read this thread first. I just paid $395 for a Fox stabalizer. It goes on Wednesday with a 3.5 RE lift. The guy at 4Wheel talked me into it. Said it was the best on the market. Sounds like according to you guys, one is just ad a good as another tho. :banghead:

Return or exchange it.

Get the OME Stabilizer because it has a stone guard protector on it oppose to the other ones that have the piston showing which has no protection. Yes, a steering stabilizer could be an issue on DW. The Dealer said they had a recall on the steering damper, I have an LJ but don't recall if it applies to the TJ though. Went to the Dealership and they fixed the problem. Now have 5k miles on it and still no DW.

Moot point.... its a 2005

It's a moot point, this is a 3 year old thread

Yes, a steering stabilizer could be an issue on DW.

A steering stabilizer can only temporarily mask the symptoms of DW but it is never the root cause of nor the cure for DW. Replacing the steering stablizer to cure DW would be like placing a band-aid over a skin cancer. Both may temporarily mask the symptoms but the underlying problem is still there.

hmmm maybe a ground breaker here!!!!!

check your whole front end and rear end ive had similar issues as dw can be cuased by many things as lil as just a lost weight on a tire rim

check your drag link trac bar stabilizer check ball joints ballance axles and shafts check u joints check control arms and bushings check sway bar link and link bushings check swaybar bushings them selves

Cool.



Get a $30 off-the-shelf brand. A properly set up suspension doesn't even need a stabilizer

Good. Go to napa and get a $25 monroe.

Rough country and Rancho are the best. But, you have ab 2005 Unlimited Rubicon, then Rancho is best for you.

This is specially designed for heavy tires and wheels. This protects your car from vibration and bumps steer. Worth for buying.

Rough Country? Rancho? I would heavily disagree on both accords. The best one i have seen is the Falcon. Everyone i have talked to likes it. I have a Fox, and it works just fine. I had a JKS that worked well, but i dented it on a rock. TBH, you can prob get another stock one and save the $$

this, a $25 monroe is as good as a $200 "performance" option as the steering stabilizer isnt a performance part. best thing about the monroe one is it's already black.
