What brand are the stabilizers?

Without going to detail and getting mad about the situation again, I need replace one of the front stabalizer's that got bent. It's not repairable....What brand is it from the factory? Cheapest place to get one?

It would help if you posted year and model of hybrid you're asking about.
It's not listed in your profile.

If you want one like the original just buy the cheapest thing you can find. That would be the brand they were using that day on the line. Whatever you buy from somewhere like etrailer will probably be better built.
Oh, and if they have a better deal on 2 of them go ahead and get two because you will bend up another one sooner or later.

I bent my two rears to hell a while ago and replaced them with a pair of stabilizers from Harbor Freight. Way better constructed, wasn't flimsy aluminum like the oem. If you're going to replace them, get aftermarket. I think I paid $32 each.

More than likely your jacks are made by Lippert components. I think etrailer has them if you want to go back to the same brand.

Here's probably what you had:

Prices are fairly comparable anywhere you go. Prepare for sticker shock.

You'd be amazed at what is re-buildable. Here are pictures of when I bottomed out and absolutely crushed my stabilizer jacks:

I gave them to forum member Bob Caldwell who had another forum member, OldCoot rebuild them for him. Once it was all put back together, they were better and stronger than before.

I tried to warn Bob as to how bad they were (with pics) and he responded, "one man's junk is another man's treasure".

If you don't repair them, at least offer them off to the forum. I'm sure someone will take you up on them!
