If you've ever read any of my posts you would know I hardly regurgitate bullshit banter. I often get irritated by it as well. I'm probably one of the very few running 37s with a 30 up front and lunch boxes F/R.. That being said, in regards to a SS.. There is a slight difference driving with and with out if, in all of my experiences it being SLIGHT. I've had several occasions where a ****ed up SS has contributed to DW. IMO if you're running the type of tires that warrant the need for a King SS then you need hydro. Pretty much plain and simple. I know you're just irritated and arguing the fact to be a nonconformist, but come on dude... We both know the type of guy who buys these things... And if it isn't a douche who wants to look cool and it happens to be a regular guy trying to get a nice ride, this thing is misleading AF, because he'll soon find out that a sick ass steering stabilizer isn't what he needs- and ditch it for hydro.

I agree in the level of tires/setup and ss warranting a hydro set up for sure.

I also in no way agree any ss is worth more than 70 bucks....no way would I spend 250-420 on one.

BUT...they do make a difference

The road i live on is pretty much a collection of potholes and patches. I drove without an SS for a few days when i was wating for my reloaction brackets and it wasent bad. there was a little difference but it was not anything major. I was thinking of leaving it off and just saving the 60$ but i figured i already have it and it does work so i mite as well just keep it on for now.

Verbatim.
Thus my show truck comment. And it is a beautiful one at that.

Don't understand why everyone is bashing this. Yes, it's more bling than functional, but people spend far more or far worse things. If you don't like it, don't buy it.

You don't understand? Read the last line of the FIRST post... here, I'll help you out - "What's everyone's thoughts on a potential new product from King?"

The original poster ASKED for opinions... so they are getting them.

You don't like the opinions, don't read the thread.

wow good one. That really hurt. Are you even a marine? My guess is no and if you are than you most definitely are a blue falcon shit bag of a marine that merely slimed by your entire career. Also if you were a marine you would know that our "Kevlar" covers are not mandatory to wear therefore I don't have to wear one also due to my SOP's of my team we don't wear them. So how about you grow up and quit being a child.
