I would guess the car owners definition of rebuilt is the biggest question.

Was the front end removed from car and completely taken apart. Were all worn parts repaired or replaced including king pins, spring, shocks, steering box, tires, and rims?

It would be my opinion that a correctly restored Model A front end should not need a steering stabilizer.

steering stabilizer is a band aid fix.

dont forget the wishbone ball and its socket and all the steering balls and their associated parts.

Have an original sector and bearing housing ready for install! Just need to get psyched up to enjoying the task!
