I have a Borgeson steering gear and have recently obtained a DSS steering stabilizer. I have read here that the DSS needs to be modified to work with the steering gear. Does anyone have the details of the modification?

Are you referring to a steering stabilizer, or a steering brace? Brace needs modded a little bit. stabilizer would not.

basically, the Borg box is a little bigger, and slightly moved the output shaft about 1/8"-1/4" to the right (IIRC). The brace, you'll need to "slot" the bearing bolt-holes to accommodate this, as well as the bearing's center opening, so that the bearing assembly can slide over a little to center on the shaft..A dremel should suffice.

I put a new Borgenson steering box on my rig and I had to move the the steering box mounting bracket on the stabilizer over about 3/4 of a inch. I just ground down the welding until I could get it off, moved it over and then rewelded it.
