I installed a lift and the steering is now "sloppy" around 45mph and 60mph. Trailmaster offers a duel steering stabilizer and was wondering if it was worth it. Wanted to know if anybody had any experience with it before?

Okay first off, stabilizers are bandaids like they mentioned, secondly, a stabilizer will not help "sloppy steering"... here are some common steering ailments and the problems that could cause them, by sloppy im assuming oyu mean play in steering, so check your TREs and stuff, NOT your stabilizer
Play in steering wheel: could be worn TREs, high lift, track bar,etc
Vibration: unbalanced tires, worn bearings, etc
Death Wobble: worn bushings, unbalanced tires, old bearings, bent tubes
Shimmy: worn bushings, unbalanced tires, old bearings, bent tubes
Wandering: Incorrect castor/camber, improperly balanced tires, tires missing lugs, etc
Anywho, a stabilizer will mask shimmying and help reduce deathwobble, NOT sloppy steering..
Perheps others can chime in with my list? Im sure im forgetting some stuff i just threw that up there to make a point
