using the front mount style you will be able to mount a stabilizer. i love mine but you have to mess around with how its installed for the best clearance. i bought one for 40$ but they you can make a homemade version using a cobra cable guard and a simms screw on noise dampner. i just tapped out the end of the cable guard rod and screwed the rubber simms on the end. i then cut the length of the cobra cable guard bar to the same size as the real sts. to me it looks and does the same thing for under 20$. if your not handy i would just buy the real deal. http://websearcht.cs.com/cs/boomfram...%253DCGS127502 http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/te...h-results1.jsp
