Default Rancho or predator ?

Has anyone got the rancho or predator (teaka toys) steering stabilizer?
I'm not sure if the predator is worth the extra 100 bucks or if its just the extra hardware in the kit.

Do you need anything other than the replacement damper, can the stock hardware be reused?

Everything you need comes with the Rancho Kit. I do not have it but I know guys who do and its a relatively easy install. Odds are the Predator uses a Rancho Shock anyway.

Thanks for the info. They have a great price on the 9000xs shocks at truckaddons and I think I'll do the steering stabilizer also.

Thanks for the link TWR, really like the look of your truck. Not that I'm partial to white or anything
Did you notice a difference in the handling after the stabilizer?

Hi GRTWHT1 , glad i could help. I didn't notice much difference driving in town with the front stabilizer. Mine had a small leak, so i put the fabtech on. If you did alot of off roading i am sure you would notice the difference when it was working hard off roading. The bigger size makes it less likey to airraid the oil inside.
