Dave,
Some dampers were made with a WAY TOO HEAVY a shock & will sometimes bend the tie rod. If the shock resistance is proper, they work well. Several later cars had them from the FACTORY, even.
DON'T condemn them as a general rule, when they were set up with the WRONG resistance.
TOO OFTEN, folks just REPEAT the same old RHETORIC, like, "IT'S the CONDENSOR or THE COIL, ETC, ETC" (The Dog calls that, "PARROT TALK")
