The Lottery!!

ok, the real question is:

What does a steering stabalizer do? I saw a PEP stabalizer at a local shop for 99.00. Is this a good deal? are they worth it? How do they work??

A steering stabilizer damps oscillations in the steering gear and reduces "bump-steer." When you hit a rock, hole, or a rut at speed, a steering stabilizer helps keep the wheels pointed in the direction you want to go.

Seems like the guys at the local shop that sells them would have told you about steering stabilizers, c400ex1234. From the list of high-performance accessories in your signature, you're obviously a qualified customer; the guys in the store should be happy to answer your questions.

yeah i know.. i was in a hurry, and i forgot to ask them. They are real nice people tho, and would be truthful about it.

 

Im on my 2nd PEP stabilizer and waiting for my third one to arrive,PEP was using stabilizers made by Cofab in Brazil and designed for the VW super beetle(about 19.00 at the auto parts store)but they've had so many returns on them due to seal failures they are producing their own stabilizers now,they say they are better(I hope so) and are rebuildable,but if I had it to do all over again I would have purchased the Denton setup and I still might if I have to wait any longer for my new one from PEP to show up.

 

I bought the pep stabilizer yesterday at cerini's. Since I have a shop also I got it for cost $78 I had to go all the way down there to get a gasket for the flywheel cover (installed curtis sparks ingition advance keyway) the stabilizer made a HUGE difference!

 

if the PEP stabilizer is that bad why keep geting them don t u have to pay for them or what lol i have yet to have one myself

I have never paid for a replacement stabilizer,and they tell me that the new one they are sending me is built by them and not Cobab and I shouldnt have any problems with it.The only reason I dont have the new one yet is because they told me they have been flooded with people sending in they're old ones for replacement.If this new one goes out I'll step up to the plate and buy a Denton.

 

Don't buy the Denton. The mounting sets up incorrect geometry that makes for inconsistant damping left to right.

I believe the Graydon's mounting is adjustible and corrects this problem.

If you got your heart set on Denton, I have one I'll sell you.....

 

Thanks for the advice Gabe,I haven't talked to or seen anybody(at the dunes)that runs a Graydon,it would be nice to hear some more feedback on them.
Checked out your video clips on your web site, thats one sick jump.
