50 ford f1 steering stabilizer

[35 coupe]

Wondering if a steering stabilizer is worth it. Do they help on an old pick em up. The front end is really good, just looking for a little more tightness. trying to take some of the wonder out when you are going down the road. THANKS

I put radial tires on my 1950 f1 . handles much better.

I put a VW super beetle steering stabalizer on the front of my A-V8. Works well.

If everything is in good condition I don't see the reason for it.

After rebuilding my 48 and driving it as a daily for 10 years I'd have to say the only reason to add a stabilizer is if something is badly worn. My late model Dodge truck is quirkier than the 48 F1.....

I do run LT radials tho

Had my stock 49 F1 for 40 years - bias ply tyres. Always driven beautifully if all steering components are well maintained. No need for add-ons.

Mine wandered until I adjusted the lash in the steering box, now it drives great with bias plys on it.

The spring bushings are the biggest culprit, followed closely by steering box slop. If you get those two things tight, you probably won't need a steering stabilizer.
