Replace your Steering Stabilizer, you'll be surprised.
Re: Replace your Steering Stabilizer, you'll be surprised.
I have over time replaced the stabilizers on all three cars. When I got the old ones off they seem like they should work fine yet there is a noticeable difference in the feel and how much straighter they track. If I didn’t notice a difference after the first replacement I wouldn’t have done it two more times.

This last time, there was the same resistance in the old one as new - but there was a 'slop' to it - I think this was how the steering was so loose.
I saw a night and day difference after changing it, same as when I did the Graphite car's the first time.

Hello fellow members. Just replace this dampener in my ‘05 with 60k miles and I have to very much agree with all the positive posts! Less than $50 (JoeTLC.com) and it was a very easy DIY. Before, the car did not track perfectly straight, easily weaving due to road imperfections. With the new dampener it’s so much better and tighter. The old shock offered hardly any resistance compared to the new one. An inexpensive steering upgrade. Thank you so NeverEnough for sharing this great tip!,, Cheers!

It is a simple job as I have replaced mine on 2 Crossfires
Using auto ramps to get the car up and give you more room to work is a must IMO
30 minutes start to finish to change the part and go for a drive

VERY easy to do, and I did notice it seems the steering was easier to turn, I found that odd but after taking it out to Amish country in Ohio and back the steering seems quicker.
