The best one that I recommend is the EFS Extreme steering damper. We sell it for $130 and we are at Springwood. I am happy to freight it to you for free if you can't be stuffed driving. We do have them in stock.
My second choice is the Tough Dog steering damper for $120. It is a little smaller but I do like the steel dust cover compared to the boot the EFS Extreme have. They seem to both have the same good valving, the same both ways and they don't have movement in them like most other steering dampers have. I usually have these in stock. It may depend on what year your Patrol is.
(PRICES MAY CHANGE AT ANY TIME )
Cheers
Shane

No not a fan because the adjusting mechanism is something else to go wrong.

Yes this is the one used from August 89 for all GQ's.
August 89 and earlier used a different damper. In this case EFS Extreme don't have a damper so the Tough Dog damper becomes my only recommendation.
I have tried many dampers over the years so I do have faith in these dampers as being superior.
