Different again from a suspension shock, the RAW 4x4 SS195 is a steering damper listed to fit the Nissan Patrol GU Y61 Series 1 and 2 LWB wagon. It damps the steering rather than the ride, calming the wheel rather than carrying load.

What is a steering damper?

A steering damper mounts across the steering linkage and absorbs the kick and shimmy fed back through the wheel — the wobble a solid-front-axle Patrol can develop over corrugations or at speed. The SS195 is RAW 4x4's steering damper for the GU Y61 LWB; it doesn't carry weight or set ride height like a coil or shock, it steadies the steering so the wheel doesn't fight back over rough ground.

Does the SS195 suit my GU Y61?

It's listed to fit the Nissan Patrol GU Y61 Series 1 and 2 LWB wagon. The supplier doesn't publish mounting detail or length, so confirm your Series and that your truck's steering setup matches with the workshop before ordering — particularly if the front end has been modified or lifted.

Fitting a steering damper at Oak Flats

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits steering dampers like the SS195 in-house across the Illawarra. We check the steering components, the mounts and any play in the linkage while we're in there, since a damper masks a wobble but won't fix worn joints, and confirm the GU Y61 LWB fitment before booking the bay in Oak Flats.

Pricing and ordering

RAW 4x4 hasn't published a fixed price for the SS195, so we quote it on order. Tell us your GU Y61 Series and whether the front end is standard or modified and we'll confirm fitment and cost before the part is sourced.

Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.

Common questions

Will a steering damper fix a death wobble?
It calms steering shimmy, but a wobble often starts with worn joints or alignment. We check those alongside fitting the SS195 so it isn't just masking a fault.
Does the SS195 affect ride height?
No. It's a steering damper, not a suspension spring or shock — it steadies the steering and doesn't change how the Patrol sits.
