R.A....... a steering damper is different than a panhard bar. The damper is a hydraulic gizmo that is essentially a shock....

this site has an article about dampers (not dampeners). SoCal usually does both a panhard and a damper as I remember.

Do you need a damper? Many cars do not have one and drive just fine......perhaps others can comment that have tried it both ways.
