steering stabilizer install
Anyone have any helpful hints or tips on installing a pro comp steering stabilzer? I just got one and I am having a hard time matching the instructions with the brackets and parts.

Did you get this project done? If no, did your truck come with a factory stabilizer? If it did not, then the brackets you were/are looking for may not be there. I have the dual stabilzer kit from Superlift, aside from having to lop a small tab of metal off the knuckle with my sawzall it was a 20 minute job. If you got the single kit then you will have to mount the connecting bracket with the u-bolts to the trac bar.

I got it installed. It was just a single kit. There was no factory stabilizer on the truck, and the mounting bracket was bent, but after staring at it for a while I got it put on. It makes a HUGE difference.

stabilizer in today. Peace of cake, only problem was the fixed bracket in the car that was bent in little bit. I did not have the stabilizer on the car and could not see any marks either. So obviously some 4x4's have it and some don't.
It made a big difference when offroading, did a short test drive in the track.
It does not hit the steering wheel off your hands anymore if hitting some holes or rocks etc.
