Of course they are "charged". However you dont seem to understand how they work.

They are designed to protect the steering colum and sector shaft from sudden movement in each direction. They only slow the movement of the tie rod in both directions. They are designed to have equal resistance on compression and extension. They are not like a standard shock absorber. A standard shock absorber is designed to have weight on it, steering stabilizers are not.

I suggest you educate yourself a bit more, unless you love throwing inaccurate information out there.
Here u go dickweed...

Regardless of what was said I learned some stuff from this post on how the stabilizer works and what's not supposed to happen. Im glad to know im getting a fox 2.0 stabilizer for a christmas gift. Whether it be karma or one person outsmarting the other. Thanks! It is what it is, not a pissing match on brilliance.

Loadmaster brought out his arrogance and assumptions... Go back and read the uncalled for posts. The vid was in response to his request. This forum exists for the joy and assistance of jeeping, owners, and assistance. Its ok not to know something, thats what this is all about ... Learning... No need to jump on others for no reason, and with false information. So if someone wants tojump out like that, then i have noissue putting them back in their place a little bit.

You may want to consider relocating it. Jeepswag has a kit that does this as well as Poly.
