I am currently getting a teraflex 2.5" lift installed on my jeep and the shop swears I need a dual steering stabilizer with this. Any truth to this? Thanks

U don't absolutely need one. They're just tryin to make some more $$$ off of u. I have the 2.5" teraflex also, with 37" BFG km2's on stock wheels with spacers and the factory steering stabilizer. Been running it like this for 3 months now with no problems

If everything is installed correctly you will not need it. An upgraded single SS with a relocation bracket might help a little. The OEM works well with a proper set up.

Hey S.A.M. from Indy, no, I swear you don't need a dual SS.

You should also include your JK's info when you ask questions; Year, 2 or 4 door, tire size, etc.

No truth to that at all to that with any TeraFlex lift.
