I am building a GQ with 6 inch lift, gu diffs, gu steering, superflex drop arms, 35" MTZ, t/d adjustables just want to get an opinion on which steering damper to use.

1, Tough Dog SV adjustable
2, Tough Dog RTC or
3, Tough Dog H/D RTC

Thanks

Ive got the tough dog SV Adjustable. Had it for 2 months now and the adjusters seized, but im happy with the setting as it is so ill just leave it :roll: .

Siezed after 2 months. I would say get it replaced under warranty but then you would have no steering damper for an unknown period of time.

You didn't buy it from me did you. If so I will replace it with another brand if you like so you won't be without a damper.

Nah, I got it from a store up here. Your stuff's workin sweet :armsup: !

All you need to do (so ive been told) is pull the adjuster off, clean it out, pack with good grease and reinstall. Might do it sunday :roll: ?

Oh ive been thinkin, What about a Big Bore Tough Dog Adjustable shock instead of the SV Dampner? Ie My SV's on setting 7, the big bore would be on 3 or 4 with the same effect but less fade. Just a thought :roll: ? Any one know any tech on if this would work?

Same topic isn't it?
