There are plenty of quality steering shocks on the market. I normally run a dual setup but my work duty has done very well with a single bilstein replacement of the factory unit. The bilstein has kept 35x1250s in check for 5 years now. I see you have a level kit? maybe some of the correction components that go with that werent used? It also appears you have stock shocks? A pair of quality shocks will go a long ways to giving a controlled ride. Hope some of this helps!

I went with Kelderman Fox Dual steering stabilizer. I have been very happy with this setup and would do it again.

I also have a 2019 F350 SRW CCLB only with the XL edition.
Currently have a lift and 35's and I swapped out the OEM single for a BDS dual set-up with the fox 2.0's. Currently running the 2.0's on the corners too.
I didn't have the shimmy beforehand but when loaded up with camper it wanted to wander a bit.
After the install it made a positive difference for my application, stiffened it up. Was worth it for me.

Your front end is lifted, did you correct the steering geometry? Steering stabilizers won't do a thing for bump steer. The steering linkage needs to be parallel with the track bar.

Superlift IIRC. Hardware that came with it wasn't great, but the brackets were nice and love the Bilsteins.

A can of worms you have opened! You will get every opinion out there from no steering stabilizer is needed at all to run 3. On both my 2017 and now my 2022 450 I put a PMF dual set up on with fox stabilizers and it made a world of difference. Ditch the OEM one all together as it is not effective in it's current location. It is on a different plane than your front axle so as the suspension cycles up/down the stabilizer compresses and decompresses which is not what you want.

Might be just me but that looks sure like there is too much negative camber in the front. After lifting, as others have suggested, get an alignment by a competent shop and see if that helps.

It very much so is! There is usually an eccentric bushing in one of the ball joint holes, that can be rotated slightly to make adjustments.

It's not a perfect system and after a few years of rust, the untrained eye can't even tell the bushing is there, much less adjustable.
