Front Stabilizer Shock Replacement?

[Turbo Kidd]

I'm ready to replace my front stabilizer shock on my 2003 4x4..... Does Bilstein make a replacement for my truck? If not, any suggestions for a replacement would be most appreciated.

Thanks!

Don't know about Bilstein, I changed to a Rancho stabilizer shock. Don't really know how much better than stock, I just figured it was time. Seems to work fine.

Were there any indicators for needing replacement? What is was your milage when you did the job?

Well had 53,000+ miles on the stock stabilizer, had 2" leveling kit, Rancho 9000Xs and BFG 315s the whole time. Not really any real symptoms, just felt like it was time. The 315s were getting to replacement time. I removed the leveling kit, put on Power Wagon Wheels with BFG 285s, new Ranchos in the front and the Rancho stabilizer shock.

YO HOOT..... looks VERY cool! What set-up is that? Anyone know if Bilstien makes a set-up? I put Bilstien shock front and rear on my truck, and I love them..... I would like to use their stabilizer shock if they make one.

I believe this is a Carli setup.

I think it will cost a whole lot more than the $45 or so that my Rancho stabilizer cost, and that was installed.

YES there is a Bilstien stabilizer. Superlift uses Bilstiens on there dual steering stabilizer. It looks like a nice unit but its $230
