Dual Stabilizer Question
I have a new 2019 F250 Crew cab and looking for a dual stabilizer kit that will work on stock height truck.
Those I have seen stat they only work wit 2 or more inches of lift.
If anyone has installed one on a stock height truck and it is working fine, please replay back with the brand and part number.
Thanks

I put the Kelderman Dual setup on my stock 2019 F-350 4x4 truck at 18k miles in December 2019 after my second OEM steering stabilizer failed. I left the OEM POS SS in place. I’ve had the Kelderman on for over 2k miles. I pull a 9500lb conventional travel trailer most of the time being a full time RVer. The Kelderman is relatively easy to install. It improved the stability of my truck’s steering immensely. The truck no longer felt like a rattletrap going down the road. All the constantly noticeable deleterious vibrations and motions in the steering wheel disappeared immediately after the Kelderman with dual FOX 2.0 opposing stabilizers went on. It is worth every penny of the $600 cost which includes shipping. Give Kelderman a call, and they’ll set you up with the correct model. They offer several powder coated colors.

That would be only for a F-450 which has the wide track axle, the F-350 dually is not the wide track axle.

I installed it myself. Based on my experience, I offer the following advice. If you’re like me and don’t have access to a lift (aka working upside down on your back), get the front wheels up about 8” and keep them off the ground, preferably with jack stands. You don’t have to remove the wheels, but I did need a helper to get the outside bolts in. It was a real work order for me to compress the stabilizers even the couple of inches needed to align the outside bolt. I had my helper (my better half) put the bolt in from bottom up. This reduces exposure of the threads on the nut side which would hang down if you inserted them from the top. I also purchased two Monroe shock boots on Amazon that fit perfectly over the shaft to reduce contamination from road debris and grime ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000C...b_b_asin_title).
One thing I disagree with is your comment that you put the bolt facing up with nut on top. My opinion of that is if the nut loosens the bolt falls out. If the bolt faces down the nut could be gone and the bolt would still hold things together.
Not criticism just my 2 cents.

I installed the PMF Dual Stabilizer Kit, Opted for the Bilstiens. Rugged and a fair price, less than $400, also easy install. My 2019 F250 had, IMO, bad "Bump Steer", no DW. After installing the PMF it was a different truck. I removed the stock stabilizer, 2nd one Ford installed, I was very pleased with the results, been about 4K miles and still good, highly recommend.

According to their website it'll work with both. Below the center mount for stock height and above for lifted. $329 includes the bracket and a pair of Bilstein stabilizers.
