If I were you I would make a new topic . . . But in essence it is a shock that controls the lateral movement of your front suspension.

Would it SOLVE it? No. Would it help some? Maybe. Hard braking opens up lots of opportunities for things that a steering damper will have no affect on. Hard to say if it would assist you or not.

when i search for f4i steering dampener, there are these $40 damper rods, but they don't come with a mounting kit. How are people supposed to mount them?
