Really stupid Steering stabilizer question

[Moonshineheadache]

So if I have the Fox Through shaft steering stabilizer configured for mounting to the existing axle bracket - can it be reconfigured for use with a tie rod clamp? If so, I can't seem to find that part # anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yup! Was researching this last night: https://www.northridge4x4.com/part/803-02-039-fox-ats-stabilizer-replacement-clamp-1-5-8in-black

Or I think you can buy both of these:

Assuming you're going with a 1-5/8" tie rod

Brilliant! Thanks so much! The option 2 - bolt and clamp is exactly what I need!

Quick thread hijack because I was shopping these yesterday- are you upgrading the steering stabilizer for reduced bump steer, or tighter steering feel, or both?

No problem. I already have the steering stabilizer installed, but I'm looking to add the track bar relocator and it requires a different mounting configuration moving from axle mount to tie rod mount. To answer the 2nd part - all in an attempt to take out every possible source of bump steer an improve steering feel. As much as I love this truck, it drives like a rollerskate over potholes and speedbumps.

Mine is the same way... I'm going down the same rabbit hole as you!

I'll be installing the Steer Smarts Yeti XD Tie Rod and Draglink pretty soon. I'm getting a nasty shimmy after hitting bumps/dips in the road that just appeared recently.
