If it's stock, then duals won't work. It has been talked about here several times, just do a search.
With the dual stabilizer system, on rough terrain the track bar contacts the center bracket driving it down into the tie rod causing binding in the steering.
So to replace the steering stabilizer on an 05-07 stock height SD you need to just replace the factory unit with a HD unit in the same location.

I bought a Monroe one for my 01 SD from Shockwarehouse.com
I also paid the $4 dollars for the boot for it.
The only problem I had was one end didn't fit because it had a bushing in it. I took the bushing out, and it fit fine.
I think the total was around $44'ish.
Mine wasn't bad at the time, so I didn't notice too much of an improvment. I just changed it out when I did my shocks.

I experienced the same thing. After putting on 4 billsteins I had the Monroe shock put on. Solved all the death wobble/vibration. My bet is that this is a maintenance item, and if I don't trade my truck I will change the front stabilizer every 20,000 miles. I had 30,000 miles when I put the new Monroe stabilzer on. I could play the old one like an accordian in my two hands. Obviously wore out. Change it and your problems will be solved. Mine is a 2005, F-350 6.0 PSD long bed.

I don't know, but shockwarehouse sent me the Monroe. They seem to know what they are doing. Also, from another source, I understand that the RANCHO's we have are pretty much knock offs from MONROE.
