Default aftermarket steering stabalizer.....just for looks?

Getting a 2.5 inch lift done. Had the option of a "performance" steering stabilizer or dual stabilizer. These don't do much....if anything right? Just for looks?

I only have 2k on my stocker so that is fine

Don't waste your money. If you're stock one isn't leaking or anything, stick with it. You may want to look into a relocation kit to get it up out of the way though.

You don't need the other. If your stocker isn't blown, save your money.

Being brand new, i couldnt agree more. Save your money and buy a procal or something. But as miles progress and possibly bigger tires. I would recommend one. It improved my daily driving.

Dual SS will help you flex more on speed bumps

haha This made me laugh! What does that even mean?? I'm going to assume that it was sarcastic. Very funny. Anyways to answer your question, NO, you don't "need" a new one. But when do we "need anything for our Jeeps. As others have said the only thing I would consider would be to relocate it if you planning on wheeling it. I busted mine awhile back and got a relocation bracket and a new stock one and haven't had a problem since.
