You can probably make a bracket for a hatchback rear door damper..about $40 instead of $400.

Trouble with that is, if I'm not mistaken, all the dampers for a hatchback, car hood, tail-gate, or tool-box lid will only dampen one way- they are designed to lift.  For a steering damper, you'll need a dual-direction damper, something like a truck steering stablizer.  Maybe there is a small-ish one made to fit a compact truck, perhaps.

Or shop in the ATV line of steering stabilizers.  I'm sure there are some that are less expensive than others, maybe could be adapted?

Any one know of a good cheap steering stabilizer that will fit the Drifter? My uncle just recently installed the voyager trike kit on his Drifter. Don't want to spend a lot on one at least till he sees if he gets the feel he's looking for.
