Single Steering Stabilizer Kit. As a first-timer, you might have a lot of questions about this accessory. So, today we'll be answering most of them, including how to install steering stabilizers for cars, jeeps, and SUVs!
It's a simple process that involves accessing the underside of your car. This method is the easiest way you can get control of your steering wheel without paying hundreds of dollars to the repair store. Let's get started, shall we? Before we begin, let's introduce you to the parts that will definitely come up in the installation process.
First of all, two steering knuckles secure the two front wheels to the axle. A tie rod supports the knuckles and connects to a drag link. Whether this center link joins the tie rod or the knuckles to the steering box will depend on your jeep's suspension. Either way, the steering box is linked to the steering wheel with a shaft. That is how the basic steering system for a car goes. Just like that, whenever you accelerate, stop, or turn, the forces are passed on to the wheels.
However, as your old steering dampers lose effectiveness, the vibration of the tires can also translate to the steering wheel. So, the best location for the new steering damper is between the chassis and the center link!
Alright, now it's time to show you how to install a steering stabilizer. Take notes! The first step is to lift your car with jack stands. Local car repair services will often use ramps for this process. Anyway, the old steering damper should be near the passenger side coil spring. If you see a cotter pin holding the old stabilizer from one side, you can take the cotter pin out with a pair of wire cutters.
Usually, an 18 mm bolt supports the stabilizer from the other side. You can ease it out with a wrench. If it's being particularly stubborn, try tapping its head with a hammer. Be gentle; otherwise, you might damage the threading. You can use the same mounting bracket with a little modification.
If the new steering damper is of a different size, you'll be provided with a template in the box. Once you do that, the holes on the mounting bracket will align with the holes on the left shock. Drive the stock bolt through the first hole and the new bolt through the second hole. Fasten them tightly and move on to the next step! The other shock has pre-drilled holes for installing bolts from the front and nuts from the back.
