Steering Stabalizers
Steering Stabalizers
Does any one have any ideas where to get a single or a dual steering stabalizer kit for a 2002 f150 with a 6" suspension lift? im finding them everywhere for a 4wd but the truck is in need of em cause im rollin 37"s...any help at all would be greatly appreciated
Generally steering stabalizer's don't do much for ifs suspension, they only really help with solid axle trucks. But here's one option:

I didn't realize he had the older body style than mine. I guess he has the perfect rim width/backspacing combo, and a sawz-all
I would think that it would help the rack and pinion. I am on the fence about going to 37's, if I do I am definately putting stabilizers on to eleviate the shock put to the rack....It seems to be an inexpensive mod. Why not?

I am not sure if it has more or less effect on IFS vs. Solid Axle. The local clubs here have a few people that have 37's and 38's on their f150's and they all installed steering stabilizers as the racks on these trucks are pretty much straight out of a focus. I know that when I hit certain things with the wheel cranked it is not good and I am running 35's. I figure it is a pretty inexpensive mod, if I do go to 37's I will definately try it. I am still on the fence as I do not want to put a body lift on the truck. I currently have 8" total inches of suspension lift and think that is enough to clear them with a little fender trimming.

Yea it's not gonna hurt, just after the reviews on them people either loved them or said they didn't really make a noticeable difference so I could never justify the 50 bucks being a poor college student ha.
I put the rough country stabilizer on mine about two weeks ago, and so far it seems like money well spent. I no longer have the squirly play in the front end after hitting bumps or pot holes and when going over railroad crossings. It's definitely smoothed up the front end alot.
Well then I think I stand corrected haha. I know what I'm buying myself for christmas now ha
EDIT: found a dual one too http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SLF-92265/

Don't be fooled by the cheap price of the rough country, the absorber they send you is a MONSTER! At first I thought they had made a mistake and sent me a full size shock. Plus I could never find any instructions on the superlift one to see how it worked and mounted before buying.
