H3 Steering Stabilizer
Holy Smokes! I just put the sweetest wheels on the planet on my H3, 20" Ballistic 'Zealots' with 35" Toyo. I drove it around the first week or so, and ive always driven with my left arm on top of the wheel, and now I think I've pulled a muscle or something. My whole arm feels like I've been on a Jack Hammer. It's Leveled, but no Lift, and it's always been rough riding, but it's just unruly with the 20's. I figure a lot of people are putting wheels on, is anybody else having this problem?

when you increase wheel diameter and lessen the sidewall rubber you will sacrifice ride quality and comfort and safety in harsher road conditions which has been tested and proven, and something that I have encountered first hand. Stick with the stock size and your ride will be much better and SAFER. JMO

I think I'm going to try to Shoehorn this Fabtech FTS8009 Rack and Pinion Stabilizer made for an F150 on the Hummer. I'll have to check for Clearance issues, and I'm out of Town at the moment. I can't believe I'm the only one with this issue. I seriously think I've messed up my Rotator Cuff on my left arm.

have your steering rack looked at. I run a wheel and tire combo that is about 120lbs, and I don't have that issue. Maybe you should just go drive an old truck for awhile and strengthen up them arm muscles. It would be cheaper than trying to fab something. I would start with something off of a GM vehicle because it will probably work better

This wheel/tire combo is pretty heavy. I was taking them off while cleaning and painting the Rusted Rotors. It was a shore to lift them. I guess 120 sounds about right. It would be interesting to Weigh them. Maybe I have a bum rotator cuff or something, but if I do it's because of this vehicle. It's always seemed to be a little unruly on bumps on the interstate and stuff. I've just exacerbated the situation by quite a bit. It's kicking like a mule now. You'd think whatever steering system GM or whoever puts in a Vehicle, especially on a 4X4, that they would account for a Stabilizer System. It seems greater than an oversight. Everything I read about Rack and Pinion, is that have great feedback. For Race cars that may be a good thing, but I'm not sure it's so hot for a 4x4.
