I recenfly a 2004 Ram 3500 pickup and one of the first things I knew I had to do was replace the worn out Rancho steering stabilizer with a Bilstein. I used my 1/2 impact and an adjustable wrench to get the old and rusted one off and I put the new one on with no issues. Don’t forget to put some anti seize on the new threads to make it even easier the next time you have to do a replacement. It’s a super easy job to do and it can be done in your driveway with no lifts in under 20 minutes, especially if you have an impact and a wrench. Since the truck is a Dodge, and 20 years old, it has some looseness in the steering, but this stabilizer made an immediate and noticeable difference. For the price of this, it’s well worth it and the silver appearance looks great under the truck.

FunctionalityGood. Replaced my stock steering dampener that was pretty worn after 100k. Tightened response up, and my tires don't wander after hitting bumps in the road. Does exactly what it's suppose to do. I feel no need to install a duel dampener setup, even with my 35" tires. I should also note that I installed this on my 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 4WD. Even though Bilstein's part charts don't show they make one for my model, this part number cross referred via OEM to reveal it should fit, and it does.LooksCosmetically, it's ok. I like the stainless steel case, but the rubber dust cover they use for the 5100's doesn't really work well in the application of steering dampeners. It always folds one direction or the other rather than collapsing like an accordion. It just looks kind of funny.I have Bilstein 5100's for my shocks as well, and I've been happy with every Bilstein product I've owned. It's a significant improvement over stock, even for heavy duty applications.

I needed to replace what appeared to be the original steering damper on my truck; there wasn't much resistance on the piston anymore. I got the Bilstein damper to go with the shocks. I initially ordered the wrong damper as I thought it would come with the bolt to attach to the steering linkage: it didn't and the bolt off the original cannot be reused. This is the correct one to get if you need the steering damper with the bolt for attachment to the steering linkage as it is permanently attached. The steering damper works very well and is easy to install, which takes probably 30 minutes with the removal of the old one. Don't forget the pickle fork either!

This item does not fit what it says it will fit. I returned the item, Amazon received it, and after two months, they still haven’t given my money back. There is no one to talk to, and you have to pay to send someone a message asking about the return. I don’t recommend buying anything from Amazon. If you think you may have to return it.
