17oaks, is the rancho rs5415 a big improvement over the stock stabilizer? Also, is this the correct part number to replace the stock stabilizer on a 2019 f250 4x4. thanks for the help.

 

The SS is the FIRST line of defense against DW. Looking at the suspension and any understanding of Newton's 1st/3rd laws of motion you know without a doubt that hitting a pothole, railroad track etc is going to transfer the direct energy in a lateral motion. The SS is there to mitigate the results of that lateral motion, without it becomes a hammer banging away at your suspension components until what time enough damage or in this case the clearances (space between each component at its joining makes it loose, the looser it gets the more violent the DW! So the key is to maintain that SS! How can you tell when it begins to fail? notice on the road at hwy speed how many time a minute your have to turn the wheel to keep going in a straight line. It does not take much just moving the steering wheel back and forth an inch or even less with a couple of fingers and you are doing it near constantly...SS is starting to fail.

When the SS fails and you get slight case of DW that is the time if not before to replace. After the first time you get DW it gets easier and easier do to the continued damage it does to the components. DW usually comes on a a slight shiver and goes downhill from there.


Its an improvement, but I would go with the 7000 series 7415 for $20 bucks more, I would have if I could have found one in stock that day. I just installed a 7415 on a '17 F 350 with 37k mi as a PREVENTION measure as they guy intends on keeping the truck for a 100k mi or more...

 

thank you!

 

I've got a King coming Tues.1/28/20, 26000mi on my "17 f250" + Fox 2.0's in a box waiting to go on soon. Winter has put a hold on truck upgrades.

 

Should we go with Dual SS on our heavy trucks or single?

 

I’ll be the odd one, but I’ve always been odd so there’s that:

 

Beautiful set up, is it the FTS22313 kit?

 

Thank you, it is this one:

I actually ordered this along with the 4” radius arm kit with the 4.0 coil overs first of May. However, this was delivered first and my kit thanks to Covid supply issue was just delivered on Wednesday. Install happens this coming Wednesday… the wait for items now is getting tiring, but excited it will finally be getting installed!

So far no issues with stabilizer and have about 5,000 miles on and about 500miles of that off-road. All works well!

 

Hmmm, expensive. For a Canadian like me that over $1000 CDN for basically two shocks and a bracket.
