Default steering stabilizer

i'm having a bit to much steering shake at speeds over 20mph, anyone know of a steering stabilizer that can be installed, or is that just going to be the nature of the beast.

Are you sure it's in the steering or is it a wheel/tire balance issue. Mine shook like crazy until I got the tires/wheels balanced. Very smooth now at 35 plus. I also have my toe in at 1/4".

1/4" measured how far from the spindle? I am asking the same question in another post. I was told I would have to find a steering stabilizer and modify it to fit. I will give the tire balance a try also.

It should be measured from center of tread in the front of the tire to center of tread in the rear of the tires. EZGO says it should be set from 0 to 1/8" toe in. I set mine a little more because of the higher speed. We will see how the tires wear.

at only 25-35 mph i didn't think it would be a tire balance issue, but i guess it will not hurt to take then to my shop and check the balance, thanks for the input terryh, hope thats all i need.
