Steering Damper Relocation kit...
Im looking to do this mod while I do my lift, what are my choices of kits? So far Im looking at the kit from Rover Tracks that uses a OME stabilizer and the Rockware kit that requires a D90 stabilizer. Which would be a better buy and why?

get the rovertracks kit. rovertracks uses a 1.25" dom tube while rockware just sleeves the original. the d2 style damper with loops at each end rovertracks uses has a larger range of movement over the defender style stud/loop.

What sort of wheeling are you planning on doing, how much lift are you looking at? Why do you even feel you need a relocate the stabilizer. I have run my 99 D2 for nearly 5 years with out ever hitting the stabilizer. I would suggest you just put that money into your lift.

on the d1 & rrc, the damper is much more prone to being hit since its behind the axle on the tie rod compared to the defender & d2 where it sits above the axle on the drag link
