I ordered the Fox, order processed and arrived in less than a week. Packaged well and all parts there. Installed today, the difference in steering is noticeable right away. Feels less loose. A bit of a hassle with u-clamps fitting over tie rod and into bracket but rest of job went well. All done on creeper in driveway. Thanks Jeremy
Glad it all worked out, Thank you for your support!
@@WeldtecDesigns How can I buy one for a 2004 e150

Thanks Jeremy
Thank You! Great video!
You're welcome! I'm glad you like it!! 👍
Holy crap the plastic stronger than steel
Cool I think I could install this….however I want whole grocery kit so I think I’ll leave it all to the pros……I’ll be making my appointment later this fall.
Awesome!!
Good work👌👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Another great video thanks
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you!! 👍
Jeremy, how about a steering stabilizer for the Chevy Express van?
👍
i'd like to try this, i have had 4 E vans with loose steering
I have an 06 e250 I just put new inner and outer tie rods on and the ball joints are just fine but I get up to about 72 73 I get the shake in my steering this is a new van to me is that common for these Econoline vans that have a little rough staring. Thank you.
Hey Jeremy,
Can I do this in my driveway without jacking the van up or lifting it off the ground?
I did it in my driveway, without jacking the van up. Really simple installation.
@@josemartin530 bro.. That was 9 months ago...
Yes, it’s possible
Nice tutorial;
Have you guys found any success in this stabilizer for work vans overloaded that have a wandering steering problem ?
My '94 Chinook E-350 with the 460 has a factory steering stabilizer. Do I still need the extra brackets or will the factory mounts fit?
Thanks. I've been watching your vids for awhile and have started subscribing.
Nice Stuff, is there a protective boot for. The shock shaft ?
We can add one if you would like.
Question: What does this do? It only makes the steering harder to turn right?
It is a shock for your steering reducing the feedback that comes through the steering wheel.
Hi Jeremy, I had the same gas steering stabilizer installed in my 2021 E450 motorhome with 10k miles. Now, I get a constant pull to the driver side, even after a front wheel alignment. Any thoughts what could be causing the pull to the left?
The SS is not causing the drift, typically you need more caster on that side, Try that and let us know.
so in the video you show us that your using a FOX stabilizer but on your site your selling us Bilstein whats the difference in the 2 different brands
Hey Frank,
Due to FOX being on a global backorder, we decided to collab with Bilstein as another option with how popular our steering stabilizer kit is. We also offer this with our King shock. There are price differences as well. All of the shocks have had really good feedback from customers, but some customers prefer to keep with FOX or want a more affordable option such as Bilstein.
will this kit fit the stock front suspension set up on a 2004 Ford E250 thanks for the reply
This kit seems so easy to install. I would like to know where i can buy this kit
My E450 has a stock Ford steering stabilizer and has a bracket that isn't in your video and it also looks smaller than the Fox. Do you see any issue with simply reusing the stock bracket and location of the factory stabilizer?
Hi May I know what will make me want to do this? What problem does it solve? Thanks
Think of this as a shock for your steering reducing the feedback you will get through your steering wheel when driving down the road.
i’m looking for this but that could work for a diesel van can someone help me ?
Hey Anthony, absolutely, we do have the diesel option for this kit.
We have the FOX shock version (this is on backorder): weldtecdesigns.com/product/wtd-ford-e-series-fox-steering-stabilizer-kit-diesel/
and the Bilstein shock version (currently available): weldtecdesigns.com/product/wtd-ford-e-series-bilstein-steering-stabilizer-kit-diesel/
Is welding required on Ford diesel kits?
@@WeldtecDesigns Did you make an install video showing the diesel option being installed that covers the welding? I'm looking through the videos again to see if I can find one. I'd also like to know if welding it in interferes with doing a Baja Grocery Getter lift later on? Thanks! 🙏
How muxh cost the parts sbd tools to do the job on a 2003 v10 3-450 super duty box truck?
Hi Jeremy,
Thank you for the great informational video.
Would this set up work on E350 Quigley?
Thank you
No, sorry this will not work on the Quigley 4x4.
I have a Quigley... What one should I use?
Gas charged will pull constantly to the left ?
I see you also sell a King stabilizer for the same application, any preference? How much more of a hassle is it to drill those 3 hole with stock suspension in place? I have a 2022 Jayco Class C.
It's not that hard with the stock suspension on it, We do have a new kit coming for all the RV'ers out there that don't want a 4/6 lift kit.
Hello I have a 1991 E350 rv will this work on that year.
I want to know
No sway bar needed when installing this stabilizer?
What is a grocery getter kit?
That's our best selling lift kit for the Ford E-Series
Jeremy. What brand of drill bit is that?
*Dullaf brand*
@@bitshtannicajohnson6957 Cool! Thank you! Skål!
Would this fit the F series?
Jeremy, I just received the components for the steering stabilizer from Weldtec. I have a 1992 Ford E350 and my frame mounting bracket that I received from you does not look like the same part as in your video. It does NOT contour like yours. I know this part goes on the passenger side. Can you help?
Please advise. Cynthia Songco 925.324.2692 This is the part I need to install so I can get my rig on the road. Thanks in advance.
Is this a quick fix to solve loose steering caused by tie rod ends that should be replaced?
Not a “fix”, but a mask. Will also hide failing ball joints as well.
@@MrIgottap My ball joints, though still decent, are going to have to eventually be replaced. Would installing this shock be a hindrance in knowing when I should replace the ball joints, or a good option for better steering in the meantime?
You don't have any for 2016? The parts page says-2014
the E series vans and chassis cabs were discontinued in 2014.
16 is a Transit. Unless you have a cutaway? Then it will work.
@@chubbysumo2230 Chassis are still being used on cut-away and RV's
What effect does it have on the steering?
Cuts down on some of the slop back and forth in your steering. It can also mask other problems you might have so check you’re ball joints and tie rods first to see if they need to be replaced.
Does the tie-rod steering assemble have to be removed to install this stabilizer?
I just installed mine with out removing any tie rod just with the jack in my driveway
gear wrench is sexy
They definitely are indeed! 👍
Will this fit on a 1995 E350?
Yes they will fit.
Is this available for the 3rd gen Ford van?
You should be able to run this on the 3rd gen vans. We have one we are building so i will take a look.
@@jeremyjohnson8361 Looking forward to see it
what kit? I clicked on links and they did not take me to a "kit"
weldtecdesigns.com/product/wtd-ford-e-series-fox-steering-stabilizer-kit-gas/ref/WeldTec+Designs/
Hopefully that helps!
Same everything for a 06 6.0 diesel?
Thanks
NO, Typically we do a weld on mount for the diesels because they have a larger oil pan that comes really close to the FOX shock.
Just grab one from an e450 school bus or ambulance..
The holes are already drilled in your vehicles frame, you will need to tap the proper thread into place.
(Location of pre drilled holes is passenger side, just where the stabilizer is close to the frame.
Do you have 2014 ford e 350 ?
Where do I order it?
