The present invention relates to a new hydraulic stabilizing unit that can be mounted onto any self-steering axle assembly that utilises a pneumatic stabilizing system. The hydraulic stabilizer works in conjunction with the pneumatic stabilizer to eliminate a "dead zone" of the pneumatic system to avoid wheel shimmy and hop conditions associated with out of specification caster angles on the axle.
