  • Finally found my solution to relocate the steering stabilizer on OVERCLOCK3D. I've been running without one for several months... and even did the Colorado/Moab trip without one. A steering stabilizer isn't need to have a vehicle drive right...but it does help prolong the life of your steering components by dampening some of the high frequency vibrations and also protecting your gearbox from big jarring hits.
    I found this at offroadonly.com...
    Tru-Turn Steering Stabilizer relocation kit for Wrangler JKs moves the steering stabilizer from below the tie rod, and up to run along the draglink and attach to the frame at the driverside.
    The welded bracket with the ears mounts between the factory swaybar mount and the frame with the moving end clamped to the draglink with our steering stabilizer bracket kit as shown below. This kit includes all the parts to mount a standard 8″ eye to eye steering stabilizer in this location, but does not include the stabilizer.
    There is a spacer plate included to space the passenger side of the swaybar mount down an equal amount as the driverside for when a swaybar like our SwayLOC is used.
    Even though I didn't use the drag link bracket from the kit... it was totally worth the purchase for that frame relocation bracket. Most people, however, will use the drag link bracket as well.

    You are absolutely correct in that I like the idea of getting it up out of the way. Great video, thanks for the relocation idea

    Nice! I run high steer knuckles on my JK and all Steer Smarts components. I run a Teraflex front axle and this combination created the same issues trying to run a steering stabilizer. This is a great solution! I ended up running a synergy bracket which moved my stabilizer mounting position up high enough to just clear the tie rod. If I had seen this first I probably would have went this route.

      I just can't believe I didn't know this existed sooner. This was an awesome and simple solution. I was looking at all kinds of other options before I found this.

    I wonder if you could run a sort of dual stabilizer set up with one in the log spot and one with the bracket

      I guess you could... but I'm honestly not sure why you would want to. I am not sold on the idea of more stabilizers is better.

    • @o3djeeps
      @o3djeeps  6 років тому +1

      I *just* installed it...but it should be no different than the stock location. It's got a pretty simple job... and as long as it's got the clearance to not hit anything, then it should just never be noticed. :-)

    Just curious...You're one of the reasons I'm running Yeti XD tierod/top mount draglink w/ Griffin as well as that monstrosity Steer Smarts calls a trackbar. Were you not content with the Yeti steering linkage or did it fail you that you swapped it out or is it just an matter of wanting the advantages of an aluminum set up ie rough it up on the rocks and springs right back into place

    • @o3djeeps
      @o3djeeps  6 років тому +2

      I'd been looking at aluminum for a long time... and I'd be lying if I didn't say I think they just look awesome! That was a large part of the swap. The XD attenuator on the draglink was not completely clearing in my setup... my boot was torn...my end boots were torn... it's just been hit hard for a couple of years, so it was just time for a change. Nothing against the YETI stuff... really great stuff. I do miss the adjustment clamps over the jam nuts and their no flop solution in the ends. Just know that sometimes I make changes just to make changes, and it doesn't always signify that it's to replace a bad product or part.

      @@o3djeeps say no more! I'm sure every Jeep owner can relate. We might be the 1 community in the automotive industry where the term, "if it ain't broke don't fix it" doesn't apply Lol. I myself would be lying if I haven't tried to come up with the most miniscule of an excuse to justify a part swap. 2.5 Ton Aluminum...that alone is reason enough to make the swap, the fact that they look clean AF is a bonus. Not to mention, TMR is the real deal. For offroad enthusiasts by offroad enthusiasts. They've never had to rely on social media whoring, a legion of sponsored rigs, aftermarket vendor middle men to carry their stuff. They just let their products & customer service do the talking. It amazes me how a company of that caliber isn't a bigger blip on people's radars & higher up on the aftermarket totem pole.
