The stock stabilizer does a fine job of absorbing a lot of the vibrations from the road to the steering wheel but there is always room for some improvement. Also the price of this steering stabilizer is so reasonable that no one will make fun of you if you buy it just for the flashy white color that contrasts with all the black under your Jeep.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"lineSmall\">\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<h2>Prep: Greasing and Pressing the Poly Bushings<\/h2>\n<div class=\"col-md-12\">\n<p>This Daystar kit comes with two polyurethane bushings that have to be greased and pressed into the housings at each end of the steering stabilizer. The poly bushings will last much longer than their rubber counterparts but make sure to use the grease (that comes with the kit) when installing to eliminate any chance of squeaking. We used a small hand press and the bushings went in very smoothly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-4\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suspension.com\/images\/ku01019-install\/greasing-polyurethane-bushing.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive img-fluid\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<h4>Greasing the Poly Bushing<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-4\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suspension.com\/images\/ku01019-install\/greasing-the-steering-stabilizer.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive img-fluid\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<h4>Greasing the Housing<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-4\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suspension.com\/images\/ku01019-install\/pressing-in-a-bushing.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive img-fluid\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<h4>Pressing in the Bushing<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-6 pt15\">\n<h3>Bushings Installed<\/h3>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the steering stabilizer with the polyurethane bushings installed.

The original still seems to be in good shape but this 2012 Jeep JK was recently purchased and hasn&#8217;t seen a ton of off-road use, which will wear the rubber bushing down over time. If you are planning on a lot of off-road adventures polyurethane bushings will make the ride stiffer but last a lot longer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"lineSmall\">\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<h2>Installation of Daystar Steering Stabilizer<\/h2>\n<div class=\"col-md-6\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suspension.com\/images\/ku01019-install\/bolting-on-a-new-steering-stabilizer-2012-jeep-jk.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive img-fluid\" alt=\"bolting on the daystar steering stabilizer for jeep jk\"\/><\/p>\n<h4>Passenger side<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-6\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suspension.com\/images\/ku01019-install\/installing-2012-jeep-wrangler-steering-stabilizer.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive img-fluid\" alt=\"installing the daystar steering stabilizer for jeep wrangler\"\/><\/p>\n<h4>Driver&#8217;s side<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-12 pt15\">\n<h3>Two Wrenches are Better than One<\/h3>\n<p>We tried several different tools to remove the old steering stabilizer and install the new one, including a wrench and a socket, two wrenches, and even a wrench and a pair of channel locks. Our experience taking the original steering stabilizer off taught us that using two wrenches works better for the passenger side bolts than the other methods. On the driver side a socket worked best. We hand tightened the passenger side connection and then moved to the driver&#8217;s side. With both ends of the stabilizer secured we then tightened both sides down to <b>50 ft-lbs<\/b>, which are the torque specs for this 2012 Jeep Wrangler JK.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"lineSmall\">\n<div style=\"clear:both;\"><\/div>\n<h2>Tips and Hints<\/h2>\n<div class=\"col-md-6 order-sm-2\">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suspension.com\/images\/ku01019-install\/install-drain-side-down.jpg\" class=\"img-responsive img-fluid\" alt=\"incorrect installation\"\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-6 order-sm-1\">\n<h3>Keeping the Stabilizer Dry<\/h3>\n<p>Off-roading is what Jeeps do and that often includes a little bit of moisture.
