Steering stabilzers

I am searching for input on steering dampers. I am not experiencing the death wobble. However, I feel that adding an aftermarket shock damper would give the asthetics and steering I am looking for. I have 35" tires(the recommended minimum size for dual shocks) and a 2-1/2" leveling kit installed. Any recommendations for 1: keeping stock, 2: going w/ a single damper, or 3: going w/ a dual system?

I would vote for dual stabilizers. I'm looking at a set like this: 05-07 Ford Super Duty F250/F350 Dual Steering Stabilizer Black with Bilstein Cylinders - Top Gun Customz. You can pick the tubes you want in the kit. I hear they are good with just the basic Rough Country tubes.

I wanted to stay all rancho 5000 series..... But I have heard nothing but good about bilstein. If i go Bilstein.... I would end up going all the way w/ the rest of the shocks.

a quality single unit is fine on 35"s but if you think theres any chance you will go larger tires later. just pony up now and go dual stabilizer...
