Yeah ive got really bad wheel wobble between 30mph - 40mph so would be very interested to hear whether the damper makes a difference. Would you let me know and I might invest in one?

Did the 235/75 tyres require any arch cutting? and would they fit on 15x7 wheels?


I had to cut quite a bit off the front arches but not the rear ones.
They will fit on 15 x 7 wheels no problem.
I"ll let you know if the damper makes any difference or not.

This is the pile of bits after the butchery :)


Wow, that quite a bit of butchery. I was hoping to get away without cutting the arches, I may just stick with my 205/75's. Have you got a 3" lift as well?

Yeah that would be great if you let me know how you get on with the damper :).


Damper fitted and I'm well pleased with it, doesn't wander about all over the place on straight roads now

Has it reduced/stopped the wheel wobble? Is it easy to fit? I think I will invest in one.

I"ve never really had any wheel wobble just steering wander. It took about half an hour to fit. Just need to get my brakes sorted out before Tong !!!!
