So I'm getting my Thuren leveling kit installed on my 3500 cummins tomorrow. It will have 20x10 -18 rims on 35/12.5/20 ridge grapplers. CJC, where I bought the kit recommended a steering stabilizer as well. I think it was an extra $230 or so. My Ram has the safety group with adaptive steering. I've heard some people say the steering stabilizer made things worse. Thoughts?
 
There is rarely a reason to upgrade a factory steering stabilizer. A bigger stabilizer is just going to hide problems caused by poorly engineered geometry lifts.
 
@RamGuy84 The reason CJC recommends a stabilizer is mainly to correct pull of the tires, the ridge grapplers have very little pull so it may not be needed with 35's. Some people report a left pull from them, in that case an upgraded low mount stabilizer would make things worse. I have a Thuren King stabilizer in the box waiting to be installed, my shocks are going on 3 months since ordering and still pending shipment so i have no feedback yet. I'd run it without and see how it behaves. Good luck!
