Default Dual steering stabalizer Advice

I've been wondering how a dual steering stabalizer would work out on my truck. I've never really see them ran on a cummins usually I just see them on the front of really jacked up fords.

Thinking about this one maybe
98-02 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4 Dual Steering Stabilizer Kit with Bilstein Cylinders - Top Gun Customz

Just wondering if they would Interfere with a a DDS Steering box stabalizer or anything like that. Let me hear about your experience!

Unless your front end is beating you up and you KNOW it's not you tires and/or wheels, save your money. I'm rolling 14.5 wide Toyos with NO steering stabilizer. Not every truck needs them.

My 2001 Duramax comes with a factory steering damper (just one) and i've yet to notice when it works... i get beat the crap up all the time which i'm running bad tires also which is the reason, but i'm curious if i put a bigger one on or a second one if it will help maybe... I'll post something on it if i come up with a solution on the duramax... Good luck...

Yeah, I think I might need a DDS..

Don't think I need the Dual Steering Stabalizer. She drives great with the 35's just got em on about 2 hours ago.

Completely changed the look of my truck!

DSS. Darins Steering Stabalizer. the original steering stabalizer. it mounts right to the frame under the steering pump. it stabilizes your steering from jiggling around. its a good investment if you have death wobble.
