Steering stabilizer
Okay so I have an 03 f150 and Id like to put daul steering stabilizers on it. I only have a 2.5 leveling lift kit and a 3 inch body lift and 35 inch tires. I see they make them but they are replacements for trucks with a 6 inch lift and steering stabilizers already there. I'd like to add daul ones on but don't know if they will hook up right any one got any input ?

I had a single Pro Comp steering stabilizer on my old 2001 Supercrew. Mine had a mount that bolted onto the lower control arm bolt. Instead of this, I purchased a bolt and bolted it to an existing hole in the frame near this location. I may have some pics in my gallery. Most people believe that a single, quality stabilizer is better than two price point stabilizer.

However, I agree with wandell. A single stabilizer would suffice, the difference between a dual and a single on a ifs truck would hardly be noticeable.

That more or less only holds true for solid axle front suspensions. Stabilizers don't make that much of a difference on a truck with ifs front suspension.

I drove my 02 fx4 with a 6" lift and no stabilizer for 4 years and never really noticed any steering wheel shake. I took it in for an alignment and i had a "tie rod end" shot according to the shop. (It actually ended up being the pitman arm on the steering).
Anyways, i put a steering stabilizer (fabtech) on before the new arm arrived and never did notice a difference.
Not really worth it for even a single IMO, but for the $75 or whatever it cost, it was worth the extra piece of mind.
That said, ive never seen dual stabilizers for an ifs F150
