Yep, it worked as advertised on my previous Ram. For anyone with a welder I think it is the way to go for a trac bar fix.

I live near there and just went up and had them install one. Great people who really take good care of ya. put about 20,000 miles on mine so far and love it. Can literally run down a gravel road and hold the steering wheel with one finger if I wanted to. Right up there with South Bend as far as their customer service goes. Can't ask for more than that.

Good, I'll order one on Monday. My Lukes link is about to dent a hole in the front diff cover (I already ground a bunch of it off per directions) and it wont stay tight either.



Thanks!

You might contact Darin that created the steering stabilizer. He is making a fix for this problem.

I emailed Darin a month ago asking for information, never got a response.

I did this myself. I strongly recommend buying the "rebuilt" kit. The instructions aren't exact enough and the extra time isn't worth the "savings". I was a metal fabricater until I worked my way into engineering so I did have a clue before I started. I just think that the build your own is a little too much for most.



This is better than the Lukes Link, I have one of those on my right tie rod end.

Does anyone know if the lindstad track bar will clear a Mag Hitec front diff cover?

No it won't. That's why I installed a 2" lift in the front and have some new bump stops waiting to get installed. The Lukes and the Lindstead are both 3/4" closer to the diff. If you do the lift and don't change the bump stops, it can still hit, it just takes a bigger bump to do it.



The added lift smoothed out the ride considerably, I'm going to trim the bump stops I bought down so they are 1" longer than stock so I don't loose all the added travel.
