Installed this due to an increasing frequency of "Death Wobble" in my 2019 Power Wagon (went from once every 6 months to 5 times in 50 miles on roads). The front end was completely checked out, including ball joints, steering box, alignment, tires, and every other excuse you read about why this happens. I was told to replace my damper with the factory unit OR this Thuren King unit. I remove the old damper (which looked ok but was completely dead) with this easy to bolt in replacement. This damper not only bolted right up, it looks great, and most importantly it performs. I just drove interstates for about 300 miles and there were no issues. There was also NO steering push which was mentioned to happen sometimes. The truck rides better than I ever remember including small road bumps, large bridge expansion joints, etc, at high and low speeds. Top notch part and i will start looking into other future upgades.
2016 Ram 2500 Cummins 4x4 fits perfect, takes about 20 minutes.
Steering was feeling sloppy and getting weird feedback from my steering wheel so l decided to grab a Thuren Track Bar and King Steering Stabilizer. Tires rotated and balanced, serviced tires to correct PSI and installed King Steering Stabilizer and could right away notice the difference. Turns out it take 3-5 business days for my OEM stabilizer to rebound back to an extended position. LOL! My truck is just under 40,000 miles which is great. The Thuren Track Bar was an easy install by myself. I had to hop up in the cab to move the steering wheel a couple times but went very smoothly and the drag link adjustment was a breeze.
Quick surface street and highway test and there was a night and day difference with both of these products.
Replaced a Fox 2.0 with this modified Thuren/King steering stabilizer. Already have their track bars, springs, fox bypass shocks on with Method HD/KM3 35s on 16 PW. Immediate positive improvement in steering control/precision and bump/pothole wheel feel.
No pull and steering just 'feels good'. Another great Thuren product.
This damper made a huge difference in ride quality.
