Carli Suspension/Defiant products

Just ordered their dual Fox shox steering stabilizer w/ diff guard. Hopefully this will help with vibration in my steering wheel due to my 35" tires. Gets annoying after awhile.

You'll dig it.....it works WAY better than KORE's steering stabilizer setup.

While your at it, ask Sage about re-valving your Fox shocks, he can make 'em work alot better.

I'm thinking of ordering one also, but not sure how I can hide that from the wife . And its pretty expensive, also. I was able to muster up the dough to get a set of Carli's sway bar links, though . Be sure to post pics when you get it.

Not to my liking....I'm running some borrowed KORE shocks on the rear of my truck right now. All I will say is they were replaced by Kings valved by someone else on the donor truck.

I have the dual steering stabilizer with diff gaurd..it is sick. I have carli's suspension too, but I had the stabilizer installed at the same time, so I don't really know how much it helps, but my truck drives better than stock, not like most 'lifted' trucks. and off road, well, I don't even want to get started on that

his stabilizer is barely more than kore's setup and it has two shocks vs one, and a diff gaurd! Even if I was the owner of kore I'd be itching to have one! the kore one looks kinda weak as well.

furthemore, one pressurized shock will most likely throw your alignment out of whack...I mean, you can't make a truck drive straight by pressurizing the steering from one way. people can argue me on this, but I don't care, b'c I like my setup, mostly likely better than any single shock with no diff protection

I'm not on my computer but when I get back home to mine I'll upload some pics.

and let's not forget that it just looks ridiculously good.

Hey trik, you ever post pics of you Chase system installed?

And I'm curious, when did you start getting a vibration? Was it before/after installing the KORE kit? Or after installing the tires?

It was the tires that caused it... KORE has actually helped it some... from what I hear, the Defiant product should help the rest...
