Cut the shroud off and add a few more washers to space the rod end away from the steering arm and it fits. All for $95.00

Instead of washers i would advise to use a spacer. With washers you will have a LOT of slipage.

How did you work out what length you need?

slipage??? it comes with washers to space it, just not enough for a RHD wrangler(i should of said shims :wink: )
But im gona see if i can find some solid rod at work 2nite and drill a in it to use as a spacer just to make it look neater.

As for length just kept adding them till there was enough clearance between the tube and the steering arm, the OME stablizer is alot larger.

What i mean is those wasers that you used (which i have at home) are rather smooth and don't provide a lot of resistance. Hence giving you a bit of slipage. It might be only very slight...but to be on the safe side it's better using a spacer

I would also suggest maybe using a thin layer of rubber on each side.

A job well done none the less :)

hm yep i'd be interested in this too.
Cause they don't make one for a wrangler, so what 4wd is it made for, or better still.... what's the ARB part # ?

thanks mate

guys, we also have rancho units that go on like that and appreciate a bit of shimming for $115 inc, there mega stiff, good for 33+ tyres.

WOLF, i ended up just sanding the pitman shaft with wet and dry to take the pitting out of it and installing new seals. It has been together for a fortnight so far with no leaks and cost me $100 for the new seals.

Sunday?? whats going on

MattW, no need to work out damper lenght

MattW,& MR. 04 X IV, OME make one for a LHD wrangler, PART No:OMESD40
