Not sure what the best route to go is.


Thanks.

Agree with McMopar & Snoking. Not the cheapest...but will last the longest and will do the job right. Bracket from Solid Steele and dodge 2003 bar really makes a difference.
If you have the funds it is well worth it!

Try this.....this is what I have coming for my truck. Price is right too. Requires some welding.

thurenfabrication.com/trackbar.html

DT/Profab also makes a nice track bar set up, and it's cheaper than the solid steel/03 track bar deal.

My vote goes to DT Profab, yeah it's a bit spendy, but this way you know that death wobble will NEVER hit again, after getting hit by a drunk driver as a distant result of death wobble, I went out and spent the cash. Plus if you ever want to lift the truck you can keep you axle in line.

Note: DT is excellent but will not fit over a Mag Hy-Tech Front cover, so if you have one, or are going to have one...go with the 03 trackbar.

The DSS and TBK are a great fix! It would seem though that the TBK' the dealers are getting from Solidsteel.biz don't fit right, there is a whole sad story on this over at Turbodeieselregisty, It would seem the ones from the original maker Windecker Machine do fit though.

rjohnson.thats the way I see it too,from the tone of Windeckers thread on the Turbo Diesel Register he seems to be mad that his wife left him,at least thats what he said was the "real reason".

Even if they are competing...it has to be the same product, no?...they were both in on the creation together. Did a search and could not find the tread that discussed it.
