Steering Stabilizer Opinions?

Anyone have a recommendation for a steering stabilizer on a 2nd gen 4Runner?

I was thinking probably Rancho to go along with my RSX's and sort of wild baja-style off road style... Thoughts?

I'm pretty sure the Rancho has a bracket that has to be installed. The ProComp is a direct fit and much cheaper. Check it out. Mine works great.

Ahhh...I got mine altogether as a kit when I did my suspension.

That one little peg you have to 'pry' off sure was/is a PITA though.

I did mine while I had a pickle fork anyway for ball joints. That made short work of it and would probably be worth the hassle of renting one even just for that one job by itself. Could turn a couple hours of sweating into a 15 minute job.
