Unless you're running 40's or running offroad races I don't really see it to be necessary. But to each his own. If you get it make sure to post pics I'd be interested in seeing one

Agree with it being a waste.

Do they have one of those nifty kits for mounting 3 shocks at all 4 corners? That's what I need.

in matters such as a blowout or an impact with debris can cause a violent reaction in the steering wheel. Steering stabilizers prevent this jerking action. By absorbing the impact of unexpected jerking, the steering stabilizers shock will also help prolong the life of your ball joints and other components in the steering system. Much like a normal shocks that absorb sudden impact in the suspension, steering stabilizers shock will absorb sudden impact on the steering system

Single vs. Dual

if you are running 33 inches or smaller tires you will most likely be good with a single stabilizers, A daily driver will benefit from single steering stabilizers. now if you are running a 35 inches or larger tire, or a excess weight in the front like a snow plows or winch and off road bumper you will really benefit from a dual stabilizers, for off-road purposes for maximum control a dual steering stabilization should be used .

I think they are worth it, they look cool, and anything to make the front end of these things more stable. I will be buying the rc ones soon! And yes they will help invade of a blow out or even when hitting ruts off road. Good cheap investment.
