After installing my 35's I notice when I hit a bump I will get a slight wobble, it doesnt get bad and goes away, I do have a stock steering stabilizer. Is a dual stabilizer or a heavy duty stabilizer a must, or is something else wrong? I know back in the day I had a good old Chevy with 33's on it and the first time it happened I thought the whole front of the truck broke off and I ran it over [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif[/img] the only way to get it to stop was to pull over, come to a complete stop, then take off again, I added a stabilizer and never had a problem again. I tried both stabilizers that I have, the one thats on it now came off of my D-50 it was about 6 months old. I dont see any play in the steering system, but I dont like the angle that the stabilizer is on, its not parallel to the tie bar, if I get it parallel the bracket hits the cover on the diff if I'm hard over to the left. Any idea's ? Thanks Guys
Frank

before i put my stabilizers on my truck used to act just like your chevy did. it was so bad i almost traded it for a SD. after i put it on the truck feels 100% better. with my kit i had to flip it so the shocks ran behind the steering linkages. this is because of the skidplate. the angles on mine were not really flat so i got out the angle grinder and cut out a notch in the crossmember. also i figure once the bushings wear in i can readjust it to where its centered again. i am not sure if this will work with your truck as its 4x4, but i thought i'd share it. i just uploaded pics so go ahead and take a look
Thanks, My stock stabilizer is small compared to yours. I'm gonna look into a dual stabilizer, I have not seen a dual setup like the Super Duties run, the ones that I have seen on the SD have one on each side, instead of stacking them on top of each other. Thanks again

Believe it or not, the air pressure in the tires can contribute to the wobble.
