What the heck. I ordered from them last Monday after talking to them on the phone. I am really happy for you, but that really chaps my *** that they were all over the place with this.

Because it was purpose built as a stabilizer, and has no nitrogen chrage directional biasing (though neither should a properly set up single stabilizer)

😁
all this. And less wearable parts and stock location.

I just ordered one now from Stage 3. If I get a shipping notification any time soon I'll update as to availability.

Ok now I'm pissed. I talked to Desert Rat today, who said Fox emailed them, and told them they are actually out of stock, and that my order will take six weeks. W-T-F. It took them over a week to figure that out? Remember, Fox told Desert Rat when they ordered my stabilizer that they had 3 in stock. I am really fed up with Fox and their disorganization. Total Busch League inventory tracking. How can you get a different answer every day of the week from each rep there? Are they not using the same damn inventory system? I am this close to buying a King product instead.

$440!!!!! Hahahaha. I'm running a set of Fox 2.0 IFP on the rear of my truck to better control my Slide in truck camper, but no way would I buy that stabilizer for that price. Hahaha.

Cool story. No way would I buy a slide in camper. To each their own. If you want a purpose built adjustable stabilizer, then you spend $440.

They do exist. I got this last week, been working late so hoping for an evening where I can pop it in when there is still some daylight.

Made it home with some day light. 15 minute install. You do need a buddy or wife to help you out. The steering wheel has to be held at full max to the right to mount the clamp (with 1/8" of shaft showing at that point). Set it to "12" of 24 settings to start. Didn't go on a drive, just backed it back up into the driveway - it did make the steering feel a little more sturdy than it was. So I will play with adjustments. I also did have to rotate the reservoir to avoid it from hitting anything. Easy adjustment - just an allen bolt on the L bracket clamp to rotate it.

So the dealer put on the Pro Comp dual steering stabilizers on mine when it arrived. Can you take them off and put on the Fox single without serious hassle?

Yes. The only thing you may need is the single bolt that is re-used from the stock steering stabilizer (I assume the dealer did not give you the old stabilizer and bolts)
