Smooth Out Your Straight Axle Hot Rod's Steering with Our Simple Bolt On Solution

If you’re wary of driving your hot rod because of wobbles, bump steer, and all of the vibrations of the road rattling through your steering system and into your arms, a steering stabilizer is just what you need. In the same way that a shock absorber helps to limit excessive spring oscillation, a steering stabilizer eliminates vibrations transferred through the steering system, stifles wobble, reduces bump steer effects, decreases wear on tie rod ends, and dampens the shock effects of hitting a pothole. Don't let the potholes win. It's time to restore confidence in your ride, enjoy more shows and Sunday cruises, more double-takes, and even (why not?) more errands!

Our hot rod steering stabilizer features a universal design for lightweight street rods and hot rods with straight axle front suspension and manual steering. The steering stabilizer shock is easily adapted to both traditional (push/pull) and cross-steer (Vega box) steering systems. With a small amount of fabrication, those of you with split-wishbone suspension can also enjoy the benefits of this hot rod steering stabilizer (drilling and tapping a hole). The gloss black finish compliments any suspension, but we do offer a chrome steering stabilizer if you're looking to match a chrome straight axle setup.

If it wasn't already too-good-to-be-true, here's an added bonus: this steering stabilizer shock is simple to install. The steering stabilizer shock has a 6 inch stroke, and when installed, should be at the center of its stroke with the wheels straight ahead. This ensures full turning radius in both directions. Each end of the steering stabilizer has a clamp that fits over 7/8-inch OD tubing; one end fastens to a bar that moves with the steering ( such as a tie rod or drag link), while the other end attaches to a suspension link that does not move with the steering (like a tubular radius rod). Once both of these ends are attached, your steering has been successfully stabilized!
