4th gen steering upgrade
 

okay im doing the 4th gen. steering in my 2000. My question is what do I do about a steering stabilizer do i use a stock 4th gen one or what or does anyone know what aftermarket brand dual steering stabilizer i can run or what year to buy, because the mount on the axel is obviously 2nd gen but the steering components are 4th gen wich are much larger what to do what to doooooooo please help wanna get this done asap im getting new orders and im getting stationed in sc so iv got a long drive ahead of me

I am using a stock style KYB stabilizer with mine. I would think 4th gen should work as well but I'm not sure. With you planning to run a Borgeson box you will have to cut about 1/2 inch off the pitman arm tie rod threads to get your steering wheel straight since the Borgeson box is shifted over towards the passenger side vs the stock box.

im not really following lol where exactly am i going to have to cut lol and how do you like the borgeson box anyway i pm'd you right after i made this thread then i was like hes probably gonna see the thread anyway lol sorry bout that i just wanna have all the facts

I like the Borgeson so far. Definitely better than the wore out box it replaced. The Borgeson is a delphi box that has been modified to mount up on a 2nd gen and it shifts the pitman arm towards the passenger side about 3/8 to 1/2 inch. Since the 4th gen linkage is a little longer than 2nd gens, with a Borgeson box installed you won't have enough adjustment on the drag link to be able to center the steering wheel. So when or if you put a Borgeson on you will have to take the pitman arm tie rod out of the adjusting sleeve and cut about a 1/2 inch off on the threaded end.

okay sounds easy enough, thank you so much for mentioning that. So any oem replacement stabilizer should work then? I wanted to do dual but im not wich one would work
