Bilstein 24-196284 Single 5100 Series Front Steering Stabilizer fits 2008 2016 F250 F350 Super Duty - Reduces Steering Vibrations - Improves Handling

Easy to install and made a big difference on my truck. The steering is just like it was when the truck was new.

This Bilstein steering stabilizer is of very high quality and looks great, very superior to the oem stabilizer. Take my advice and order a cheap “pickle fork” or ball joint separator tool when you order this stabilizer to help you remove the old stabilizer from the drag link, with this tool the entire job will only take you 30 minutes, without it, it may take you 3 hrs of trying to beat the thing out! I installed this on a 2016 F250 and it fit great. My truck has about 55K miles on it and the stock stabilizer was fairly worn out and no longer decompressed. After installing, the steering is tighter and no shutter when hitting rough spots in the road. I don’t think I would call it “night and day” but it is an improvement and looks great. You’ll need a 15 mm socket, an 18mm deep socket, and a pickle fork and decent sized hammer. Unit comes with necessary hardware (you will reuse the oem bolt on one end of the shock and supplied nut and washer for the other end).

I own a 2008 F350 super duty diesel. I ordered this shock to replace the old dampener on my truck and the bilstein works like its supposed too. The steering play is gone and its alot more satisfying to steer the truck. The steering wheel doesn't feel heavy any more and I would highly recommend it. When it comes to torque I torque mine to what the manual suggest and it works just fine. Follow what the service manual torque speck and everything will work great.

Worked great, I already had this exact shock in place but when I was replacing the drag link the old one was seized in and damaged. Threw this bad boy in with a brand new drag link and tie rods on my 14 F350, worked great. Lot easier with a new one going in than taking the old one out!

Easy insulation. Held up well. Still had them on truck past couple years till I traded truck in.

Product does its job well. Make sure you have the right size pickle fork to remove the old OEM one. This will either make the job 15 mins or 4 hours. Install was easy after the old one came off and definitely improves steering.

Used it actually on a 2006 F250. But replaced the factory one and worked great!

2016 Ford F-250 Lariat 4X4 crew cab with 112K Miles on it.. I was having a lot of vibration and feedback in the steering wheel and used this to change out the factory steering stabilizer. Huge improvement over OEM. So satisfied, I ordered Bilstein 5100 shocks for my truck, huge improvement in ride and handling as well. Both easy installs. I had to use a small floor jack to compress front shocks for installation into the bottom shock rails.

Bueno

High quality replacement damper at a fair price. It will help immensely with standard front end play if this is your issue. If your hoping for it to correct or eliminate death wobble on Ford super duty , this isn't the answer .

Steering shock fit as advertised, made a big difference in handling and ride. 2016 F350

The steering feels better the stock one was worn out

No issues
