Default OLD MAN EMU Steering Stabilizer
just got this in tonight. got the bushing in with vice grips. got the flip thing so it will be higher than stock (the one for LH drive - you have to get it to use the stabilizer).

Anyway, it comes with this tapered pin. I cant figure it out. Any ideas...

the pin isnt long enough to go through the bushing with out sticking (too wide).

Toss it, you don't need it.

I think ARB said the tapered pin is for a Toyota FJ60 or FJ40 that uses the same length stabilizer.

Thanks. I can't get the pin to go through the bushing t te he's of the dampner. I don't mean it's tight. I mean it won't go.

No, the bushing is a solid bit smaller in diameter. It's weird.

I think I may have received the wrong bushing honestly.
