steering stabilizers are for people who can't hold there own steering wheel stable!

they help give it a "solid" feeling but are not a need and just cover up bad geometry/weak components IMHO I do not have one on mine.

that's the best cure, but it'll give you worse bump steer too

You and Tom are trippin, yo! My carrier has been damaged twice on the trail. Both times, the clamp got hit hard and bent out of shape, unable to hold the swinging arm properly. The guy in the video rested his Jeep on the carrier and it broke off...different issues, I would say

It did break all the way off once, but in the driveway. Probably cracked and "loosened" by said events.

Not really sore - just setting the record straight.

yeah, I want it higher. I think I will drill holes into the rear glass and run some 12inch bolts through there and attach the spare right to that. Think it'll work? Don't worry, I'll put washers on it to spread the load and make it safe n junk.
