Opinions on best steering stabilizers

[Andrew XJ]

I have $90 in the Jeep find and I need a new steering stabilizer mine has lost all of its fluid what is the best steering stabilizer for on and off road performance for under $90? Should I go with gas or hydro?

[nickxj94]

Well not sure on best but mine is a rough country it was $40 and been fine for 3 years so far.

I can also tell ya that bigjim350 swears by the stock stabilizers and he's on 6"+ lift

If your front end is tight and aligned perfect you really don't need one.

Yep. Put a stock replacement on mine about 4yrs ago. Does just fine after 4yrs of mainly just wheeling with only a little on road driving. But as said, if all your front end components are good, even your blown one will be fine. Drove mine on road for a couple weeks with no stabilizer.

well my front end is slightly wobbly at 45 to 55 miles an hour it won't full on death wobble but it does wobble and it started once the stabilizer started leaking fluid I know I need to adjust my caster angle again I had the wobble solved but I hit a huge bump while four wheeling over the weekend and it pushed my control arms all the way back in the adjustable mounts so I have to realign them, but all the roads around here a complete shit so I'm looking for something really heavy duty but in my price range

You can be heavy duty without a ram assist. That is something you need with extra large tires, like above 35". One thing you also need to do is upgrade the steering pump with this modification. It would be overkill with the size tire you have.

I was thinking rammus is because I'm about to run 37s, shortly I will be going to 5.5 inch lift with a competition cut and 37's Dana 44 front full size Ford 8.8 rear with chrome moly axle shafts and 4:56 gears.

[4.3LXJ]

I will be running one with my 37s. But my opinion is that this is something that should not be Mickey Moused

[SteveMongr]

A new stabilizer will only mask any issues while the real problem continues to worsen. Risky...
A properly functioning steering/suspension does not require a stabilizer to be able to ride and drive well.

[EricsXJ]

I agree that you shouldn't need a steering stabilizer if everything is in good working condition and tight. I haven't ran a stabilizer in years, other than the steering assist ram I have on there now. If you are close to swapping axles and suspension like you say, add that money to your jeep fund so you get to the project sooner.

Side question: why only 4.56 gears if you are going to run 37's?
