Steering Stablilizer

I own a 2000 F250 Superduty, 2WD. I am going to put on a steering stabilizer. The truck does not come with one stock, and tends to wander on the road when i hit small bumps and holes. Will a steering stabilizer help??? I just put on 265 BFG A/T's, and that seemed to help a little.

Thanks

It will probably help a bit, but remember they are not a fix all, if you have existing problems, i.e bad tie rod ends, ball joints, then you just masking the real problem. Also they are designed for off road use, ruts, rocks, things that take your wheels and want to point them in a different direction, so on the street one is fine, but a double is overkill, but kewl none the less

A good pair of aftermarket shocks can go a long way towards helping your trucks' handling problem.

Well, today i just picked up my Ford steering stabilizer kit. I plan on installing it tomorrow. I will post and inform of how it goes.
I also ordered a set of Rancho 9000X's. Does anyone have any experience with these??

Can't say I have any first-hand experience with the 9000x's, but all the posts I've managed to read so far from others have been positive. I plan on getting the Bilstein's myself, but if my budget & type of truck usage warranted the adjustable ride shocks, I would not hesitate to go with the Rancho's.
