I've got the evil front end. Lifted about 2 inches by cranking the bars. This leaves less than ideal steering geometry. I've put the bump steer there now I've got to deal with it.

Not really, I put 2 on my wagon in the early days to prevent patrol shimmy - just didn't bother taking them off. Because of the ratio advantage, most small movement was still evident in the damper bushes. Although, for you Jake, it may save some wear and tear on your steering box.

No need too go duel dampeners as there is a new RTC dampener made by 4 way suspension that is around 700mm long and 80mm diameter, ( looks like a coil over shock) we sell them in the shop and have one too see.

How much are they going for Cheezy ?

I thought that when people run twin shocks ect they are only 1/2 the damping effect each but with 2 they are back to normal effectiveness.

You may say why do it then, the answer is heat disapation for off road racing !

Since going to crossover (had both welded arm setup and hi-steer) on my hilux, I've never used or needed a steering damper. I can't see why they're so necessary :roll:
