Exclamation Spacers or Steering Stabilizer

I have about $150 and I'm looking into either Dura Blue Spacers, or a Streamline Rebuiladble Steering Stabilizer.
Any suggestions?

Buy the wheel spacers and use the rest of you money for life insurance. It will really make someones day when they get that fat-ass check.

wheel spacers suck..... if you want maximum suspension, DO NOT GET WHEEL SPACERS, they make your quad feel way differ in the courners, but they handle like shit.... i vote for steering stabelizer!

spacers in the rear are one thing, but still lookin for a broken neck, wheel studs arnt meant to handle all the extra stress and like many posts around the web show, will eventually break , cheap way to gain inches in the rear is flip your rims to the wider offset so the vlave stems are on the inside if you havnt already
putting wheel spacers on front is a horrible idea, not just the extra leverage ont he studs, but also the bump steer you hear people talk about, not to mention the broken neck or arm that is inevitable

Alright, just to throw in there, I just dune and ride desert, not too many jumps. But anyway, I think that I'll be buying that stabilizer. And my dad's buying me a new shift lever and nerf bars
