RAW 4x4 SS214 Steering Damper.
Category: Suspension and 4x4 parts


Steering, not ride: the RAW 4x4 SS214 is a steering damper listed to fit the Toyota Landcruiser 70 Series (78) (FZJ78/HZJ78) Troop Carrier. It is the horizontal damper that calms feedback through the steering on a solid-front-axle Cruiser, sold and fitted as a replacement.
A steering damper looks like a small shock absorber, but it is mounted across the steering linkage rather than at a wheel. Its job is to absorb kickback and bump-steer so corrugations and ruts do not snatch the wheel out of your hands. On a solid-axle 78 Series LandCruiser it is a comfort-and-control part, not a ride-height one.
A tired steering damper shows up as a wandering, nervous front end and more wheel-fight on rough roads. Replacing it with the SS214 restores the calm, and it is listed to fit the Toyota Landcruiser 70 Series (78) Troop Carrier (FZJ78/HZJ78) — we confirm your exact build first since the listing covers all variants.
No. A steering damper has nothing to do with springs, lift or load — it only damps the steering, so the SS214 will not raise the front or change what the Cruiser can carry. If your truck also wanders because of worn springs, bushes or tie-rod ends, that is a separate fix, and we will flag it when you book in rather than blaming the damper.
Oak Flats Muffler Men fits steering dampers in-house at Oak Flats. It is a quick bolt-on swap at the linkage, and we check the tie-rod ends and mounts while we are there. Send your chassis code and we will confirm the SS214.
