Dual Steering Stabilizer

Is there a Dual Steering Stabilizer Kit out there for a Stock Truck?
Has anyone put a after market Steering Stabilizer on a Stock Truck?

What would be the purpose, unless purely for looks. the stock suspension and steering doesn't need anything more. Most people running 2.5" - 4" lifts with 37" M/T tires aren't even adding a steering stabilizer given how good the stock steering system works.

Fords are notorious for having a sloppy front steering system with bump steer and death wobble. My father had a '07 that had a complete garbage front end until he put dual stabilizers on it. Now these '17 do seem to be leaps and bounds better than previous models but there still are a few people who have been complaining of bump steer and death wobble. I personally have experienced both in my '17. The current steering system is better but not perfect. Duel steering stabilizers make it closer to perfect. Now I had an opportunity to drive that Carli Suspension shop truck with their Pintop kit on a 2.5 level with 37" tires. That set up they developed is pretty darn sweet. We hit all kinds of bumps and dips big and small at slow speeds and flying over huge speed bumps at 50mph. I can honestly say their pin top kit did not feel like it needed anything more. Its a bit pricey but totally worth it. I got my kit on pre order now.


To the OP yes there are a few dual stabilizer systems on the market, pro-comp make ones, BDS and I understand you can modify a kit from previous years to work but I don't know much about that.

I did find that Wicked Customs has a Single and a Dual that they say will work on a stock truck.

Tires also play a role in the potential need for a steering stabilizer.

I put a dual steering stableizer on my 17. It's a Pro Comp Pro Runner, had it them on my 06 350 and 12 350. Also went with the Pro Runner shocks.

I added a 2.5 ReadyLift leveling kit and a track bar relocation bracket.

Amazing

So basically if you lift your super duty we need to add aftermarket steering stabilizers?

When I had the factory tires on after adding the 2.5 level kit I saw no difference but once I went to a larger tire size I knew I need one

What exactly does it "feel" like when you drive without one with larger tires?
