Installed on a 2002 Yukon Denali. It does exactly what its supposed to. I have factory wheels (17") and aging steering parts and it would wander all over the lane, requiring constant feedback. First off, this is NOT a fix for aging steering parts or bad alignments, but an aid to help guys with oversize wheels or tires get control of their vehicle again. I bought it knowing I am going to upgrade to bigger wheels and replace my worn steering parts in the future, so it is simply a bandaid for me. With that, its a pretty efficient bandaid. I only wander every now and then and it could be the ruts in the road sending me in that direction or my old steering parts.Now the two qualms about the product:1. There are two holes in one of the brackets that mounts to the frame. One is supposed to line up perfectly to an existing hole and the other requires drilling a new hole into the frame. The hole that is already there is too close to the other side of the frame and the nut would not center right and go on. So I had to drill out another hole in the frame. Not a big deal because I already had to drill out the other hole, so its not like this is a direct bolt on and go, "modification" is required. It may work for the other GM suv brothers (Tahoe, Suburban, Escalade, etc..) or different years of Denali's (GM updated the suvs in 2003 so it could work out better for them.)2. I wish it was valved a little stiffer. I like a firm steering rack and wished it required a little more input to turn, but remember this was designed for heavier wheel/tire combinations, that alone could make it more firm along with when I replace the rest of my steering parts.Anyways, I really enjoy the product, I highly recommend it to GM suv owner, I think the functionality you gain outweighs the two qualms I have about it which is why I have still given it 5 stars. Plus, you cant beat the price for the benefit you receive. I couldn't have even gotten an alignment for the cost of the product. There is no reason to buy a more expensive stabilizer, a lot of the offroad companies use the KYB and put their own color, boot, logo and charge more.
