Steering stabilizer is a shock absorber for the steering linkage. IT mounts to the frame or other solid non-moving point on one side and to the steering linkage on the other. It takes the harsh inputs from potholes and road irregularities out of the steering system so the wheel is not jerked out of your hands while driving.
