1985 K20 Suburban stabilizer

[thecrow71]

I went with Offroad Design crossover steering and was going to get a new tie rod, but none of the new tie rods have a place for the stabilizer bar except with the aftermarket clips.
1.Do I still need the stabilizer with the crossover steering
2. I was gonna upgrade the tie rod with one from Offroad Design, but the new tie rod end on the driver side doesn’t have a spot for the stabilizer only aftermarket clips are those is good?

I’m sure I’m leaving some information out you might need so any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Guess I don't know what tie rod you went with. The new aluminum one?

Cause I have ORD crossover and their thick wall DOM tubing tie rod end and used a steering stabilizer...

Hi no I went with their middle of the road one the upgraded steel up here

I went back to ORD's website and looked... I see they offer two options. One is their HD tie rod with factory tie rod ends and the other option is with their own design of tie rod ends. And that is the option you must have selected?
In that case you would need to get one of their steering stabilizer clamp systems. I'd recommend running one. But I've never tried running without one.
