I need a steering dampener

Pep Boys wants 60.50 for an "OEM" version.



If I'm going to go through the trouble of getting the old one off, what should I get to replace it on an unlifted TJ with 235's?



Brand? Model?



Thanks. I need to get both hands wrapped tightly on the steering wheel...


I agree with Bill. Go with OME (Old Man Emu... not OEM). It's HUGE. I used it on my wife's almost-stock XJ.

My guess is you do not need a steering dampner at all.

Pep Boys doesn't have anything in stock except OEM. I'll check their price on this item.

I'm aware of the BFH/puller thing. That's why I want something better if I'm going to go though changing it out.

Yeah Bill, everyone who doesn't agree with you is either a troll or a philistine. Funny how many vehicles have been built without steering dampeners. Stupid engineers!
