STERLING STINGER Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 i just went out this morning and got some stuff to upgrade to solve this problem once and for all draglink tie rods steering damper all moog i needed some gloves...lol....and i got the heavier grease...i just thought it would be better project went sooth as silk...thank god i got done and noticed my end links.....remember this great idea i had about 6 months ago?? :shake: :shake: anyways, after seeing the grease was pouring out of the thing and the top bushing was warped real bad, i replaced it with one of my sterling stinger specials... these work great believe it or not...I'm currently making ones out of 5/8 cold rolled steel at work....there gonna be crazy strong..... ok...."tell the captain were out of sugar"--:Cabin Boy....lolololol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STERLING STINGER Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 i don't think i have the boot on the stabalizer right.....hmmmmmm anyone got pics of theirs for me to compare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinkrun Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Not sure, most guys say to leave the boot off it traps more dirt than it keeps out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabeMJ Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 look at your pic it goes the same way that's on there the big end goes on the shock with a zap-strap to hold it and the other end slips over the the tip of the extending rod ( there is a groove for it in the boot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STERLING STINGER Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 no..i prob havta take a pic to explain.... the boots on right...it just looks too long... maybe i gotta pull it over the whole shock......:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabeMJ Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 maybe the boot is to long or....... the shock is to long !!! with all the parts you just changed I'm assuming its a steering damper do you reach full steering on each side without the damper reaching full run ?? it might be just a faulty adjusment as you might need to move the damper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STERLING STINGER Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 move it where...theres only one way to put it on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabeMJ Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 google this : jeep steering damper bracket i tought you were using one of those and not the original setting I never reuse the original setting reason: I always use beefier damper and then they don't fit edit: your damper should have come with some brackets when you ordered it?
