Cost $16.00 + shipping and easy to install. Here's a few pics of my truck using them.

How they look installed




There is one caveat to using these stabilizers, they will stiffen the suspension a little bit but if your truck is like mine it's too damned soft from the factory so it's a win win for what I think a truck suspension should feel like, YMMV.

If for some reason you want to remove them just pop them out. Installation will require you to spread the coils apart enough to get them in place.

Took me all of 20 mins to do my truck.

How did you get the coils separted? Jack up the truck? Thanks for the info btw!

Getting the suspension hanging is the first step but to insert the 1.75" stabilizers required a little help from a very old tool designed for something else.


Don't know what it's called nor what it was originally meant for but it works perfectly.








I imagine any kind of spring compressor that grabs individual coils would work, just flip the hooks over and go the other way.
