Just Installed steering stabilizer

I found time over the holidays to finaly install the stabilizer kit and wow what a difference! I headed for the first bumpy gravel road and tried it out. It was pretty easy to do as well. I also decided to adjust my steering box at the same time and it almost handles like new!

I sure wish you had adjusted the steering box before the stabilizer was installed so you could tell how much it helped. I know from my experience that adjusting the box can make a huge difference. Still wondering if getting a steering stabilizer will help prevent wandering with my other set of tires.
Glad it is driving well now.

Did the truck wander badly on the street with the 33's on, and the stabilizer helped the wandering?
