A properly prepared Model A does not need a steering damper.

If it were my car, I would go over the complete front end. Once everything is right, it will last a long time.

Tires, spring, rims, shocks, steering box, front end, wishbone. After 90 years, a little wear here and there in the front end and you have a problem that will just be concealed with the damper.

If not properly fixed, your shimmy mostlikely will be back.
