Alright... found a new ailment on the Jeep... Y2k XJ 4WD, 52k miles....
When I went underneath to doublecheck my front diff fluid (it's been "weeping" just a bit for a while now) before a 600-mile roadtrip, I found my steering stabilizer to be covered with oil!! This certainly was NOT this way a month or so back when I changed the oil.... I woulda noticed it! Do they tend to fail "all at once"? In a probably-related topic, the Jeep's steering has felt a bit "loose" recently... as though nothing is "stabilizing" it when it hits (very common) bumps and ruts in the road... How much money are we talking for a fix... and is there anything special I need to know before diving headlong into the project? Thanks! Den |

Re: Steering Stabilizer...
Is is a stock stabilizer? If so a replacement isn't that much. two bolts to undo and replace. Pretty easy.
If it's aftermarket, anywhere from 35-60 depending on what you want. I run an Old Man EMU stabilizer on mine. Really tightened up the steering on mine. Juice |
