Default Fox 2.0 steering stabilizer

Looking to upgrade my stabilizer. I know the Bilstein will push my wheels to one side. I was thinking the Fox 2.0 one. Anyone have feedback on these?

any pressurized stablizer will "push" your wheels. is there any reason why you need to replace the factory stabilizer?

I agree with WOL. I run the stock stabilizer on 33s and no issues. I personally think the stabilizer would only be beneficial with lifts over 3".

Is the "push" noticeable? I have a bilstein and I've never noticed.

i've run the stock stablizer with 37's and 4" of lift. heck, i've run that much lift and tires without a stablizer for months. you don't need to be replacing your steering stablizer if it ain't broke.

If you do a lot of high speed off road stuff or the roads you frequently travel on are shitty then upgrade, if not, then stick with the stock one. However if you do upgrade the bilstien pushes but it really isn't that bad. I have no experience with the fox one other than it seems hella over priced, just my thoughts.

No issues w/mine. Keep in mind, the only reason, I replaced it was contact w/my TB put a tear in it & I got a great deal for the Fox slightly used.
