A stock replacement to fit your stock brackets or aftermarket kit?

If your truck is lifted and has at least 35inch tires I would recomend the Fox stabilizer. It is a little pricey but definately worth it in my opinion. When I went from a 4inch lift with 35's to a 8inch lift with 38's I had to leave the old Rancho stabilizer on the truck while the Fox stabilizer was shipped, so I got to drive the truck with both the difference was night and day. Plus they look really cool.

I just replaced mine on my 2001 F350 4x4,stock suspension.

Napa-----Monroe part # SC2961 $ 32.00.
I tried to locate a Bilstein unit,but they don't offer one is what I was told by several different shock vendors.

Well, if your running stock tires, I would just replace the stock stabilizer, I think most shock manufactures, i.e. Skyjacker, monroe, etc make them to fit the stock mounts.
No need to spend a ton of money on a custom after market unless you run bigger wider tires.

Im only running 2 tire sizes larger than stock so probably a stock one will be ok.

Thanks for the info Yeti.

Did you notice a difference between the Monroe and the stock?

Yes,I did see a difference.
But my truck has 98,000 miles on it & I replaced the original ford unit.So it was probably worn a bit.

The Rancho steering stabilizer is a nice option to improve ride quality on a Super Duty.

Had to move the stock mounting bracket towards the driver's side a bit...
