Steering stabilizers
Hey guys get post here but here's the question
I bought a 1995 f150 few weeks ago and to pass inspection I needed some
Work done. So I got, 4in bds lift with full leafs in the back, steerin box, wheel bearings, new ball joints (all 4) and new 33x12.5 duratrac tires mounted on steel wheels 15x8 and a few other things that don't matter for steering and front end.
Anyways my steering is all over the road even after an alignment and balance of my tires. My question is a steering stablizer would Obviously help this but should I be all over the road running this current set up?
Also what stabilizer is best and should I go to the extent of having a dubble? I don't like the looks of them but how good do the singles work for bump steer

How are your tie rods and controlling arm bushing? I would talk to your alignment shop. They should have inspected everything before alignment. New joints and steering box should give you pretty new steering unless something else is worn out. Check shocks and springs too. Did you lift the front end?

Yea all that should be fine I drove the truck before I lifted the front 4" with the bds kit and the shop I took it to did absolutely everything they saw it would need after a full inspection. I'm guessing it's maybe the heavy steel wheels in combo with bigger 33"s? Dose anyone else have this setup without a stabilizer cuz I doubt anyone would drive it like this for long, when your driving your DRIVING there is no way you could fire off a quick text or look around for anything your t the task of keeping it between the lanes at all times haha
