Probably slow me down. Its used to control the steering wheel from being ripped out of your hand when hitting puddles or following grooves in the road

I was just wondering. Seen them on 4X4's and wondered what they would do at the track. Unless you start getting air under those front tires.

Dont plan on doing that any time soon.
Its just these wide tire seem to wander on the road sometimes.

Stupid question. Will that work on smaller trucks as well? Let me know how it works for you.
*I have 245/45 17 on the front of a ranger. And I feel your pain. And funny thing is... Seems to only do it on Goosecreek roads and On rivers between NAd road and the mall. :dunno:*

Well I installed the stabalizer last nignt:
First impressions I was very impressed with the ease of install. Anyone with basic hand tools can install this in about 30 mins.
After riding around in my neighborhood for a few minutes these are the effects the I noticed:
The truck seems to ride smoother even though the suspention hasnt changed b/c there is significantly less vibration coming through the steering wheel.
The steering feels a tad bit heavier but its not that noticeable or intrusive.
This morning I tested it by hitting a few very large puddles and to my surprise the steering wheel wasnt ripped out of my hand.
I havent gotten the chance to test it on some rutted roads yet ( Rivers Ave and others) but if you want more info I can tell you after prolonged testing.
In my opinion it is a very good mod, and gets two thumbs up for bang for the buck mod of the year.
