just thinking of a cheap way to get some bump steer out of the yota. the shocks are VERY STIFF. will that condition overtax my p.s.pump? <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0">

i dont think they will work well ... you want a 50:50 shock as steering stabilizer ... (a shock that compresses and expands at the same rate)

most shocks are something like 70:30 (exp:compr)

hope this helps

yep what he said plus a steering stabilizer is valved to be very progressive and add a lot of damping force when you hit a bump and the suspension moves real fast, but not add a lot of force when you are trying to turn the wheels slowly like rock crawling.
