Any damper is design to reduce shock loads applied to the steering components when a tire strikes an object or obstacle.
These are used in many applications, and often used incorrectly as a device used to slow down speed wobbles, and cover up weak components or entire steering systems with poor geometry.

I have the same year truck with 6" lift and 35s and i ended up putting duals on after i tore up the single one. I like the duals alot more makes a little easier ride than single. Is your truck stock?

puts resistance on the system too so that those obstacles don't pull the steering wheel out of your hands.
