It doesn't, my last ranger didnt have one, neither does this one. I never lost 4WD or had any shakes or vibrations. Of the hundred or so RBVs I looked under when trying to find a 1354, I would say maybe 10-15% actually had a dampener.
Okay, thanks. I didnt see a plus to running the damn thing. It's in the way of my skid plate and it's coming off.

You can use the 4 damper mounting holes as the mounting holes for a second Tcase mount...

Y'all think it's a good idea to tie the t-case into the transmission crossmember?

wouldn't waste time doing it unless you stick another t case in there.
If you ever decide to add a doubler you will be hacking into the crossmember one more time.lol

You know my opinion, but then again I'm ridiculous.
Its not going to be a bad thing if you do, but in your case as of right now, its not needed.

"You built that??? Well I Nathan'd this!!!"

GOOD NEWS!!!
New shocks were the perfect ticket to control these coils. I can drive at highway speeds finally. Best investment yet! Had to crank them all the way to 9 to get the ride I wanted Lol. Oh, and these things are MASSIVE.
