I'd run dual rough country before that. Now that's legit.

It bothers my OCD to see you spend 5 times the price on dual stabilizers and fancy clamps that adds no function. It's your money but why not spend it on mods that make your rig handle and wheel better?
It $122 shipped so it's not expensive, I'm sure if I got the dealer for a stock one that I already mangled the mount to because I kept hitting it on rocks it will cost about $100.

I can run no stabilizer and have no wobble, I'd like the ATS when I get dual res shocks on

I currently have it. Blew it out about a year ago. I'm also running the same tubes on all 4 corners and are going to switch to the fox 2.0 all around

In case nobody actually READ the entire first post and not just the title, I asked if anyone knew the difference between the two different fox series of 2.0 ...........

Its a solution looking for a problem. Dual stabilizers don't do anything over a single and its one more thing to get bashed up front.

The difference in the two is basically appearance with the performance using a nicer casing and may have slightly more oil in the tube. All a stabilizer does is move fluid from one side of a piston to the other to provide resistance in the steering wheel and make bumps less noticeable. The only upgrade, imo to a factory steering stabilizer is hydraulic assist, anything less is just throwing money away.

Can't imagine going with any aftermarket stabilizer that is gas charged. I have a single stabilizer that is made by skyjacker and its 100% hydro. No pulling at the wheel what so ever.

The steering stabilizer is just to firm up the steering thats it.. I love it.

I'd personally go robotic / automatic steering. Otherwise you're just wasting fiat dollars.
