Steering Stabilizer

Do you have one?

Should I get one?

I noticed alot of people's trucks look at though they come with a steering stabilizer stock, as I high. Thinking mine might be missing.

Yours should have one. Mine's a 99.5 F350 and it came with one. Having one on will def make your driving experience alot better.
Double check with Ford parts house and see if they list your truck with or without one.
Maybe it was lifted at one time, then lowered to sell it, and they got lazy and didnt put it back on. Have you had this truck since new. If you havent maybe prior owner took it off to pass inspection if it was leaking, and never re-installed it.

Hopefully someone willchime in who has the same situation as you.

Mine did not come with one. I put an aftermarket Superlift stabilizer on. It made a good bit of difference in the truck wondering. Most that have upgraded from the stock stabilizer say that the stocker is pretty much useless.

I bought it used.

I have noticed that it seems to wander much more than my 1/2 ton did. This explains a lot. I was looking at it to see if there were even the mounts there, but it's cold and ice on the ground prevented a good view.

Does anyone have a good picture of the stock setup?
