Skyjacker 2007-2017 Jeep Wrangler (JK) Steering Damper Kit

Tame Death Wobble and Oversized Tire Kickback on Your Lifted Jeep Wrangler

Skyjacker MPN 9203 is a dual steering stabilizer kit built for the Jeep Wrangler platform, designed to control tie rod movement and reduce the steering kickback that shows up once larger tires or a lift kit are added to the front end. A silver-finished stabilizer body pairs with a black protective boot to shield the shaft from mud, sand, and road debris, and the kit bolts in using factory mounting locations for a straightforward install. MPN 9203 is engineered for lifted applications and requires a minimum of 2 inches of lift to maintain proper clearance; it does not fit stock-height trucks or aftermarket axles with a 3-inch diameter tube.
