Hydro assist does not stabilize. Any problem you are having that you needed the stabilizer is going to be multiplied by the ram. I have a stabilizer AND the hydro assist. The hydro assist takes stock steering components out as a weak link, but you should only be considering this if you spend 12 hours a day going lock-to-lock rock crawling or are running 40"+ tires. With 37s, it was overkill for me.

The complete front-end setup on my rig: Reid Knuckles, Dynatrac Ball Joints, RCV axles, Currie CurrectLync steering kit, TeraFlex Monster Track Bar, TeraFlex Dual-Rate sway bar, PSC Trail Assist steering (2008 version), TeraFlex stabilizer, TeraFlex Big Brake Kit, TeraFlex 6" lift spring for JKU, JKS ACOS Pro, Full Traction Long Arm Kit, Elka shocks, ARB locker, 4.88 gears, JE Reel 1350 drive shaft, AEV Pintlers, SpiderTraxx 1.5" spacers, Goodyear MTR 37s. Before steering stabilizer--even with this entire list of mods... twitchy. After, now feels very close to stock.

Well, that's pretty much calling me a liar all the way around. This is why I hate posting half the time. Ram assist caused me massive headaches on my build and was massively over assisted. I also had one of the very first PSC kits for a JK and it was not ready to work with a 6spd. They didn't have the correct brackets for anything, all had to be custom fabbed. The stabilizer might be overkill, but it takes the edge off, it was utterly and completely twitchy before this solution.

X3 for Show. Ran without for a week and loved it because stock SS couldnt be installed on my RK Pro TR. $250 later I got nothing but a push to the left from a Fox 2.0 and brackets. Guess I could have spent another $250 to fix the push. Looks cool but IMHO not the best money I spent.
