Default Rubicon handaling with the warn 424 (newbie)

I have a 01 Rubicon that I have owned for about 3 month. I took it out for the first time last weekend. I installed a 424 a month ago. When I took it out it felt like the front end was lose and real hard to control in 2 wheel drive. Felt like it would try and dive into the turn at any speed. I put it in 4wheel drive and it would handle fine. Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon? Has anyone installed a pep steering stabilizer on a Rubicon, like the ones used on the trx250r?

Yes, and its great!!!! Makes for some great fun when you get used to the quad (powersliding...etc). So go out and and put countless hours on your machine and have a blast. You will find it easier on the arms when riding slow bumpy trails in 2wd than 4wd too.

I dont have a Honda, but I pulled the front drive shaft on my Wolverine this summer for kicks. It handled exactly as you descibed. I think it just takes some getting used to and you will like it. In 4WD it just "Rails" around corners. In 2WD its fun to kick it around alittle.
