hey
im thinking of replacing the steering damper, the one on its probably original and they arent a very expensive part.
any experience guys? should i get a basic one in a good brand or go for an adjustable one

Personal opinion would be basic in a good brand mine is dobinson much gruntier than the little bicycle pump lookin thing that was on it and came in a complete suspension upgrade kit i bought

I agree with Growler, get 35mm bore damper in a good brand.

Ironman 35mm big bore damper is the best value for money only $100

if im considering a 2inch lift in the future, will the damper have to change then? or just get one now

when i had my 2" lift done it was all part of the kit
i have a Old Man Emu out fit on my bus

you wont need to replace it but have a look at what sort of lift you want and some "kits" come complete with a steering dampner as woolies said

from what ive seen the kids in price range are under 1000.00
basically 4 springs and 4 shocks, ironman i think

No worries if you change the dampner before you fit your lift you wont need to change it......unless youve damaged it somehow
