Default steering stabilizer/damper

Ive been looking for a stabilizer for my 99F4 after I got a bad wobble going pretty quick about a week ago but I was hoping someone could help me out with this. I found one that seems to be really good but its pretty pricey
http://www.hyperformanceparts.com/ca...duct_info.html - and then I found a piston one that is half as much
http://www.hyperformanceparts.com/ca...duct_info.html -
but im not sure if there are any big differences besides that the scotts is adjustable and the other is not. can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

Ive never heard of the shindy damper before. They are cheaper for sure, but I dont have any idea of their quality. I looked at thier website and the shindy daytona (17-115)is adjustable. It has 7 settings. Soit is probably a decent enough stabilizer to get the job done.

Personally, I would save up for a scotts damper. GPR also makes a really good damper. But it all depends on your budget. The shindy would definately be better than nothing.

Would you buy the GPR or the Scotts?

I would probably go with GPR. But Scotts are very good as well. Like I said, if you want to go with the shindy, there's probably nothing wrong with it, and having one is definately better than not having one at all. It wasnt that long ago that the cylinder style was all you could get for a damper.

I have the Scotts and love it. Got a great deal on Ebay, you just have to be patient.
