You'll definitely notice a difference, especially if you're still running the stock stabilizer at 63K miles. Search Fox 2.0 Stabilizer. There's another thread on here about the same subject. Some replace the stock stabilizer plus add a dual stabilizer. That would only be necessary with a huge lift and huge tires, especially with high negative offset wheels.

I had the PMF with Bilsteins on my 2011 F350 at stock height without any issues. I plan to get the same again for my 2020 F250.
For those of you that went with Fox or King shocks, what made you choose the more expensive units? Being as this is for steering components which see much less 'activity' than suspension I am curious about your choices?

simple blistien 4600 worked fine on my 2010.
they were take offs from the rear position.
they had the exact shock strut travel needed

If the Bilstein leaks you throw it away and buy a new one. If the Fox leaks you buy a seal kit and rebuild it.

This is the way I saw it, stabilizer should be connected the what it is suppose to stabilize. I went with the PMF with the Bilsteins, stock '19 F250, plow package, 275/70/18...no regrets, big difference.

I have yet to experience the "death wobble". This is my 2nd SD. Never had it with my 2015 (that I know of) or my new 2021. What causes this? Is it a flaw in the design? Or? Please try to keep the comments truthful. Thanks all.

MKrenn, I’ve read about a number of things that cause it. Seems that one major factor that seems to be a culprit is the solid front axle. That what is shared with Jeeps. I’ve had a 2000 Jeep Wrangler for 16 years and never experienced it. I thought people were exaggerating the event. Didn’t figure it could be as bad as people stated, but when it happened in my new to me 2017, I couldn’t believe how terrible that surprise was. I was doing 75 and going across a bridge where that small transition hit just right and I thought we were done. It shook us so hard I could barely see (had my eyes messed up). My wife said park this thing. We’re getting a rental. I also had a 2000 F-250 Lariat 2WD, but have learned that it was never a problem in 2WD. Some have also stated that it became more prevalent in the 2017 and later 4WD. You say you haven’t experienced yet, and I truly hope you never do.

I'm convinced it has to do with the larger tires. My f250 w/275/70/18 had bump steer until I installed the PMF Dual Stabilizer. My f350, same coil spring front end, has 245/75/16, never wobbled or experienced bump steer, stock, both trucks are 4x4 with plow package.
