SuspensionMaxx SMX-SSB2520KIT Steering Stabilizer Kit 16-23 6.6L GM Duramax LML / L5P
Description
Yeah, we think its pretty dumb that the new Duramax's don't have a factory steering stabilizer too. But, at least there are easy to install, inexpensive options to get one added. This bolt-on Stabilizer Kit from SuspensionMaxx does just that.
GM removed the factory welded on steering stabilizer mount for the 2016 model year 2500HD trucks. If you own a 2016+ GM 2500HD and would like to add a steering stabilizer kit, SuspensionMAXX has the kit for you! The SuspensionMAXX steering stabilizer kit features a Rancho RS5000 stabilizer and simple bolt on installation with a solid robust design. Adding a steering dampener or steering stabilizer greatly reduces or eliminates bump steer and jolts felt through the steering wheel. Leveling, lifting or adding larger tires and wheels can increase these conditions. Adding a steering stabilizer to your 2016+ truck has never been easier.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Not compatible with aftermarket Cognito steering brace kit PISK
If you need a steering stabilizer bracket that is compatible with PISK, search our site for SSB2520C

"Installation was simple and works well. However the kit is listed with a rancho shock and kit shows up with some no name white shock not as advertised. That was the whole reason for ordering this kit as my truck is setup with rancho everywhere else."
