OME steering stabiliser

[chrisinflight]

My Old Man Emu stabiliser arrived a few minutes ago. For your info. it was cheaper than the Poocomp one and probably twice as good! The shocks are next. Anyone want to browse: www.tbruk.com
Will be fitting within the next day or so and will let you know how she drives.
cheers,
chris

are the shox cheaper too?

i want procomp+ 3inch shox, do they do a comparable item?

[chrisinflight]

No, the shocks are about £64 ea. and as far as I know are only available in one size and are suited to their +40mm springs. Pricy but quality and designed for purpose.

Er, Procomp steering shocks are 36.25 each, OME are 49.99!

Hi Bushwacker,
Just been to check the Explorer site and the Poocomp ones are £54.10.
There is Gabriel at £30-odd though.

Vince where are they at that price, getting my goodies together for next months fitting.

Procomp do two. A 'standard' one, and a heavy duty. I have the HD on my truck and it makes the big tyres controllable. With the OEM one, the steering bounced all over the place!

I see them now. DOH!

Fitted easily enough- for those who have had the steering recall done recently- it will make it easier to remove the ball-joint from the original steering damper.
The OME damper then just bolts on without the original ball-joint.

Er, just so nobody is confused:
OME- Old Man Emu £49.99
OEM- Original Equip. Man. (the one on your truck)
Procomp. HD- £55.10
Gabriel- £36.25 (Procomp do not make this and it`s biased towards road-use.)

Therefore, the cheaper OME one is a better deal as it`s easier to fit and will last longer than the Procomp one. (sorry, poocomp!)

I fancy getting one of those 'return to centre' stabilisers, but I can't find the link at the moment, any one got it in their favorites?
