I am still interested in hearing how much difference they made after someone puts a few miles on their new stabilizers.

thx Dale

We really feel like we can tell a difference. There's a lot more control and we don't get blown around as much!

I finally got well enough to install the new Rancho stabilizers today, whew, not easy for a 76 yr old guy with COPD. The OEM stabilizers were still OK, but I ruined one removing them. The new ones are 1/8" smaller OD=outside diameter than the OEM's, but I figure that may be due to manufacturing changes, because otherwise they are identical. The resistance of the OEM's vs new seem to be quite close, so replacing them may not make much difference.

Later this week I'll make a road test run, gotta return to Dr. tomorrow and Wed.
A side note, while underneath I discovered the lanyard to the wet tank manual drain is missing, hummm; gotta replace that this week too.
