Could you possibly link to some larger pics? I'd love to see how they look and how the install went.

Also, what is the effect? Are you happy with the feel?

Those are some wee tiny pics lady.

Yea, better pics please. Did it get rid of the nibble? How hard was the install?

Screw2004 01-16-2006 03:12 PM

yes it took care of the shakes my steering wheel would shake side to side around 55 to 65 no more and the steering feels tighter
For the kit to fit had drill new holes on the bracket's that bolt to the tierod ends about 2 in TDC after a littil drilling and grinding this would work with stock wheels no problem :devil:

and i will post some larger pic's later :devil:

You realize, of course, that you just called him a woman. I normally don't point out spelling/grammar mistakes, but did you perhaps mean to call him "laddie," instead of "lady"? :D

Where did you get the stabilizers from and what did they cost. Just had my tires balanced for the 4th time and stilll have a bad nibble. Makes me want to go back to stock.

I have had the kit for a while now and I thought that it wasn't going to work. Did you have to modify anything?

frist you have to drill new holes(2in) on the brackets that bolt to the tie rod end's
Then cut off about 1 3/4 in of the bracket off
Then you need to grind off some the driver's side bracket that bolt's to the rack and pinoin bolt,you will also need to trim the U bolts at the tie rod end's because they will be to long
Take a look at the pic's
