SO! I just got back from the dealership and they said they were willing to fix it at their expense by installing a Fox steering damper. Does anyone think that will work? Honestly I don't see it doing anything but making it harder to pull off center. Ideas? Thoughts? $330 wasted??

If I'm not mistaken a steering damper never fixes anything. All they do is mask an underlying problem until that problem causes your new damper to weaken and fail. You should always be able to drive perfectly fine without a steering damper at any given time.

Update:

I upgraded my original BDS poly BDS UCA and LCA front control arms with new BDS adj. arms. The new Forged flex ends and vulcanized bushings are sick. It now drives straight and the ride is much smoother. After the swap i will never use poly again. The new arms are built for seriously over built and a work of art and have great geometry.
