i looking at installing a steering stabilizer on the bronco.

i'm going for a monroe kit that is on the justsuspensions website.

they show two options. one being for an open channel frame, the other for a boxed frame.

underneath it LOOKS like it would be an open channel frame, but how can i be sure?

why did ford go with two different types of frames any way - 4x4 vs. 4x2 maybe?

thanks.

BTW: they have great prices, just sayin'...

Ford went to a boxed front Frame Rail in 92-96; "convluted section for safety restraint sys (SRS) that crushes on heavy impact; includes air bags in 9406

Monroe kit is similar to the Rancho kit

I went with pro comp dual stabilizer side by side. Had to drill a hole on wheel bracket but it worked. I'll probably install a skid plate to cover the center brackets, don't like how it looks but works great.
