I could tell a big difference with the SBS on my 3500 dually but still had a little wobble. I just got the adjustable trackbar and when installing it, noticed that the stock trackbar used a 14mm bolt on the frame end with a 16mm hole in the trackbar bushing

. I had to bore out one of the BD bushings but the end result is remarkable

With one of those bars, I bet it would drive & track as good as my Honda's.

I have to replace all my ball joints as well. where did you get all your stuff and did it really make a big difference? Thanks bud!

well before it used to pop and make terrible noises when i turned.

Check the ball joints and they were bad.

Plus i had one bad wheel bearing

So i just replaced everything. and since i work for a diesel shop i got the narsty ball joints.

they have lasted a lot longer then all over ball joints i have ever had.

its hard to say if it helped the steering at all. I was say yea a little.

Helped with like when you are turning and hit bumps in the road.
