steering stabilizer - missing parts

In my continuing effort to fix my steering problems, I've decided to try out a stabilizer. The truck didn't have one when I got it, but it did have the bracketry on the axle. Does anyone know where I can find the bracket that attatches the stabilizer to the drag link?

Most 4x4 shops should have a kit that includes the shock and the u-bolts and bracket that goes on the tie rod. I got mine from JC Whitney. It is a Heckethorn. It works ok, but if I was to do it over again, I would go with a Rancho stabilizer instead. You can also make a bracket, it's not a very complicated thing, but it would be easier to just buy one.

Thanks for the help. I didn't look at the Heckethorn, but went with the Rancho and am happy with it. What about the Heckethorn didn't you like?
