I have a 6" Rough Country lift on my 2007 Ram 1500 SLT. I'm looking into a steering stabilizer or damper to help with the sloppy steering. There is also the problem of my 35's jumping and jerking the wheel on bumps.

BDS makes one for the 1500 that fits their 6" lift but I'm not sure if that will fit mine. All the others I've seen are for stock trucks.

I'm not sure where I would even attach it.

FYI You posted in the 5th gen forums. However your sloppy steering is worn out parts. A steering stabilizer doesn’t fix that. I would start with an alignment then inspect bushings, shocks, etc.

Sorry about that. I'll look into that. Thanks
No worries you would just get more help in the 3rd gen section if there is a common problem etc. a lot of cheaper lifts didn’t support the steering box properly and that’s usually the first thing to go.
