A steering damper is just a shock absorber while a steering stabilizer includes a stout spring which attempts to return the steering to neutral. If you look at the Roadmaster Reflex online you’ll see the heavy spring. The SafeaTPlus is very similar but it has its spring inside. I’ve used both and found no functional difference in performance or installation. I currently have the Roadmaster and am very satisfied. It looks a bit more robust to me and for my application was cheaper. I installed it myself and it was pretty easy save for the heavy torque on the suspension bolts used. Adjustment is easy though a bit fiddely. I found it to be a very worthwhile upgrade and recommend it.
