Steering Stabilizer

[prairie]

Have searched but haven't come up with information I need.

My steering stabilizer is dented on my M1008, and I want to replace it with a heavier duty aftermarket one.

Any suggestions? What brand? Model/Part #'s would be greatly appreciated.

Hopefully a new stabilizer, kingpin bushings and springs, along with some matching balanced tires will cure the mild and occasional death wobble.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Go to a real auto parts store or off-road shop and see what is available. I bought a Monroe for 40 or 50 bucks, if I recall correctly, and it works fine. Usually the kingpin is to blame but cannot rule out mismatched tires, worn or loose bearings or other stuff.

I got mine from pro comp suspension. 4WD.com or any fourwheel supplier should have it. I looked on the site and could not find the part number. I have found it in the past but I think they changed the site up some.

Got into my parts book the more common brands you can get from your parts store better than oem would be Monroe # SC2913 here about 25.00 , KYB # SS10325 Here about 35.00 and Moog # SS-D84 here about 55.00 + tax could be dif in your neck of the woods I like the moog for most aps. but depends on what you want to spend? they are all better than stock!

Mine was dented also. I got a new one at NAPA rotated my tires and the occasional death wobble went away. Checked the front end everything else was tight.

I had problem with death wobble in Germany and we found that the front calipers were sticking. We replaced calipers tell we were sick .But we fixed the problem. Just for what it is worth.
