Does anyone know if they make steering stabilizers for non lifted trucks. I found a fabtech product but its only for use with there 6in lift. And yes I did a search but found nothing.

 

Why would you want one?

 

Trying to get rid of the steering nibble.

 

I've been thinking the samething. Shouldn't be hard to take an off the shelf unit & modify to fit. At least good enough to see if it soaks up some vibs.

 

I hate how my truck drives with the bigger tires. I had a Toyota with 35's that rode better than this thing does. The tires have been balanced 3 times and i cant get rib of the nibble.

 

If your truck didn't have it before, than you've got a bad tire(s) or wheel(s).

 

I bought the dual fabtech setup off ebay and modified it to fit on mine. If you have any welding/fabrication experience this is an easy mod. I had the nibble thing at 70mph before but after the installation It has been virtually eliminated. This install was done after the rebalance, index, road force drill that didnt do SHEET.

 

Any pictures? Interesting that it did work!! It may be worth a try.

-mig welder....check
-torch...........check
-stabilizer.......need to get

 

Not to de-rail the topic, but can you use the Fabtech set-up with the Rancho kit?

 

Yea lets see some pics. I bet that might void the warranty. Oh well I only have 10000 miles left.

 

What size lift and tires do you have?

Yes.
The stabilizers wont work with the sock wheel backspacing, however a non lifted truck with aftermarket wheels having 5" backspacing will work, otherwise the bracket hits the wheel.

I don't agree with this. While this is the obvious thing to look at, there are too many people with this problem that can't get it fixed by switching the tires. My nibble is intermittent even while the truck is on cruise control. It's fricken frustrating!!!
