I'm getting one these installed next week along with my HD tie rods!

Adam and Tim both have them. Maybe you can PM them for pics.

It installs just like the stock one. No need for the bracket.

Wanted to see the bracket installed. As Paragon pointed out, it looks like I can just order the shock and do not need the Rancho bracket assembly. Thanks Paragon!

I talked to Timgco on the phone yesterday and I thought he said you had to have some sort of special mounting thing. When I called 4wheelparts in Denver to have them order one for an install, then say "we have the kit in stock". Not sure what's all included in "the kit".

It appears that since the H2 already has provisions for a steering stabilzer, that the Rancho kit is not needed. The Rancho kit is designed to be installed on autos without a kit already in place.

One last question for Paragon/Phil...

What noticable benefits are there using the Rancho 5000 over the stock stabilizer?

I was convinced by Adam & Tim. They said that when you go to 37s you get a lot more steering feedback. The stablizer fixes that. I'm putting on 37s next week so I ordered it.
