    sooo after ping ponging back and forth on a truck... im gunna run this rig thru the summer and go from there... with gas going up and no end in sight... i dont need a truck payment and huge gas bill soooooo hence brings me to this.... the other night i had a hell of time getting my idler out... i have already replaced it once and took me 45mins 1st time... and 3.5 hrs the second time.... it was a PITA.... wouldnt come free from the center drag link... soo after awhile of using pickle forks and hammers a 20 lb sledge and pickle fork freed it... (yes i even tried heat). now my trucks needs an alignment... idk if it needed it before with work out idler... its been bad for awhile... but i been thinking of getting steering stabilizer to kinda help with the shock to the front end on my truck. i was loooking at the rancho one on summit for 51 dollars and says only works wioth stock height vehicles. but i never dropped my pitman arm down now idler soo would it work? gthe rough country setup is 49.95. any insight on this would be awesome.... thanks in advance ryan

    front end is tight now... had bad idler..... and i mean bad.... lol i hit a bump u could watch my wheels shake... its not soo bad now but it might be the suspension i got going... 2inch lift keys 5inch lift and aal 2.5 aal with 3inch blocks... i may have my keys cranked tooo much. im thinking taking my stack blocks out and throwwing a 4inch block in that i got kicking around. and de adjusting my keys....make it ride a lil better.... but the steering stabilizer i think would help with it.. a tad...
