If that is bouncing around while driving, you'll need to repair the wobble instead of throwing shocks at it. Looks like a 1 ton?

Yes the truck is a 1 ton crew cab.

With big heavy wheels and tires I feel the dual stabilizers are a good idea. Not crap at all. I have gone with an upgraded stabilizer in factory position and notice the benefits of the dual over that arrangement. I use a single upgraded in factory position on all my IFS trucks, but also never run bigger than 285/75s or 255/85s. I have never expected a steering stabilizer to remedy bad front end parts. The ruts worn in roads like to steer a wide tire and vehicle condition has nothing to do with it, other than degree of severity

My bracket here interferes with the top of the stock bracket.

I did end up removing the bracket completely and will be putting the dual stabilizer kit back in. Everything is painted flat black so the kit will not stick out, but the main reason is I prefer the dual stabilizer (I am running 35s") over a single and can always put the bracket back on if I want to go that route.
