Steering stabilizer kit
Windecker Machine of Weyburn, Sask., has designed a steering stabilizer kit that fits Dodge 1500, 2500, and 3500 pickups made from 1994 to 2002, and 2500 and 3500 pickups made from 2003 to the present.
The kit is designed to solve steering problems and worn-out sector shaft bearings and eliminate wandering and sloppy steering that can result from trailer towing, hauling heavy loads and using accessories such as campers and snow plows.
The kit is designed to provide additional support of the steering sector shaft and eliminate sector shaft play in the steering box. It also helps keep the pick-up frame from flexing at the steering box mounting point.
The stabilizer kit uses existing mounting holes and adds an outboard support bearing to the sector shaft. Nearly all the sector shaft load is carried by this outboard bearing, reducing wear and tear on the steering box.
The kit uses laser cut, CNC bent parts with a gloss black powder coated finish. All mounting hardware is made from Grade 8 steel.
Installation takes about a half hour and requires no drilling or welding.
The company also offers a retrofit kit for 1994 to 2002 Dodge pickups to allow use of a factory Dodge 2003 rubber bushed track bar. The steering stabilizer sells for $149 US plus shipping and handling and comes with a money-back guarantee.
