Rancho steering stabilizer shocks

Has anyone used Rancho shocks to replace their rough country shocks on their dual stabilizer kits? I tried replacing mine last night but it looks like I need to press out the sleeve that's inserted into the bushing because the bolt from the RC kit has a "built in" one....

Thoughts?

rancho steering stabilizers and rancho shocks are two different products. I had inquired to the manufacture and was told there are some design differences.

I originally meant to say rancho stabilizers, but in any event, you are right. I also confirmed by calling rancho. Gonna return these. Funny thing is that the store said these were stabilizer shocks. Oh well.

Looks like I may have to just order some from RC.

Has anyone used a different manufacturer on their RC kits?

BDS uses a stud also, IDK the specs on the inside of their bushings, but you could call them and ask:
