installing thuren(fox) steering stabilizer

Just got my fox steering stabilizer from thuren fab today.Do you install it fully extended or compress it a little? I am hoping to cure my pull to the right from my toyo m/t's.Alignment is not off,i had it on the rack numerous times,rotated tires front to back ,left to right,doesnt matter,still drifts.Almost forgot,truck is 07 quad cab,carli springs front and rear w/bilstiens also front and rear,solid steel track bar puts the front diff back where it belongs.Toyo's are 33 inch,got dipricol pillar gauges keepin an eye on everything,just waiting to pull the trigger on smarty jr,just nervous about downloading a program into my pcm,I thought about the edge ez-- I dont know what i want!

When I installed mine I mounted it in the mount, then compressed it with my hand till I got to the mid stroke line and tightened it down.

Carli's got a high clearance Bilstein 7100 steering stabilizer that he claims corrects Toyo drift.

Anyone running one ? Toyo's cant be the only tire causing this issue. I will admit I have this problem but love my Toyo's.

the drift drives me bananas,I must cure it or I will go insane! Thats why im wondering if I should compress the shaft a little before installation to get some extra push out of it. I have consulted with numerous fabricators and performance guys and they tell me this condition is normal,hopefully this does the job.
