1 ton steering question
so i just bought a set of axles that came with 1 ton steering so the stabalizer bracket was cut off, which i thought was to clear the 1 ton steering but i was looking at kits online to try n figure out what brand it was and i noticed no companys run a stabalizer with the 1 ton steering. my question is why? what makes it so that with this set up a stabalizer isnt needed? i know a stabalizer is basically a band aid to steering issues but i always see them run on stock to upgraded steering as long as the drag link still connects to the axle itself and the tie rod connects to the drag link. is that the answer to my question right there? thanks

so you guys are saying it being an otk 1 ton set up vs say the grand cherokee v8 upgrade has no impact at all? as long as everything is correctly setup/installed/working order then you shouldnt need one?
