Default 6 month old ProComp ES2000 SS leaking oil

I installed a ProComp ES2000 steering stabilizer about 6 months ago. Today I noticed it is leaking oil around the shaft seal. I assume this is not normal. Who make a SS that lasts?

Email ProComp with Pictures. They're pretty good. They'll send you a replacement. You can put the new one on, and then shop around for a better one.

Rough Country, Bilstein, Fox, King, OME, Teraflex all make good SS. Some are more expensive than others.

I corresponded with ProComp and 4 Wheel Parts and both are more than willing to provide a hassle-free warranty replacement which is great. But now I've got the itch to upgrade to duals so I think i'll just chuck the leaking stabilizer and upgrade.

I just replaced mine with a new factory pulloff stabilizer and it seems to drive better. The best part of that is it didnt cost me a dime! My dealership shop just gave it to me.
