F**!
Excellent kit and well priced.
Well made kit. It took about an hour and a half to install, because I had to take an old, worn out, kit off first. I replaced the whole thing since buying new shocks for my old one cost more than the whole original kit. Directions are pretty simple, pictures are hard to see though because they are small.The kit is made with 3/8 inch steel, well built and the welds look good. I like that it bolts to the differential cover and not just two u-bolts like my last kit of a different brand.The shocks are large bore, making turning the wheels when not moving easier than some smaller shock kits.My truck in an 05 F350 diesel crew cab 4x with 8 foot bed, a 2 inch leveling kit in the front, and 35 tires with wider rims. This kit took the bump steer completely away and turning while driving is smoother and easy, even when turning to the stops.I tow a 4 seat RZR a lot, and even though its not real heavy, the weight on the hitch made the bump steer horrible, so I assume heavier weights would show a great increase in performance.I opted to get the RC shock boots as well to help protect the shafts from gravel and winter salts.For the price, you can't go wrong!

Buy it and don’t worry again!
Why did you pick this product vs others?:Replaced a blown out fox stabilizer with this. I was getting some wicked death wobble at 40mph. Now the truck feels stiff and goes exactly where I want it to. No wandering, no games, no worries. The install was very straightforward. RC has a 2 minute video on it as well. 100% I would buy this again. Great product.

Good quality but instructions are terrible
The stabilizer kit itself is good but the instructions are terrible. I'll give some tips that will make the job way easier. For reference, I have a 2017 F-250 4x4. 2.5" Carli lift.The first part of the job is to remove the stock stabilizer. This is not in the instructions, but it should be. If done incorrectly (like I did) it is the most difficult part of the job. One end of it is easy to unbolt, while the other end will be stuck (friction fit, not threaded) in the drag link. You need an adjustable pitman arm puller or a pneumatic hammer to get it out. Beating on it with a mini sledge was useless for me. I spent at least an hour switching from a reciprocating saw and a grinder with a cutoff wheel before I finally was able to cut the old stabilizer off . I was never able to get the stuck part out of the drag link. There are radiator hoses that are very close so my method was dangerous. Anyways, that is part 1. Have the right tool and I'm sure it's not too bad.Next you install the large bracket to the front differential/axle. The instructions are ok for this. If you separate your nuts and bolts before you start, you can't really mess this up. The instructions do say to use washers on the bolts going back thru the diff cover but my kit didn't come with the correct ones. I had some at the house I used but if you had to use no washers that would be ok for this part. Next you mount the "shocks" to this bracket. They go on TOP of the bracket with the bolts coming up from the bottom. There should be a large washer on top of the shock, followed by a lock washer and then the nut. Next is to mount the outside brackets that the outside ends of the shocks mount to. These brackets go on TOP of the steering cross bar, unlike what the instructions say. The instructions don't specify exactly where they should mount them but they need to be closer to the shock, rather than further away, along the steering cross bar. If you measure the shock shaft you should have very close to 6 inches exposed. This should allow you to turn completely in both directions and not extent the shocks all the way out. I made this mistake and it bent one of my outside brackets upon test drive. Originally I set up the brackets to have 6-3/4" of shaft exposed. This was too far. It was pretty easy to move the brackets in but not so easy to take the bend out of that 3/8" thick bracket. So that concludes the tips for this. If I were to do this job over, it could be done in an hour or two. The results are good. I can definitely feel the difference in the steering. It is a tiny bit harder to turn the wheel but it doesn't bump steer like it did. It handles quite a bit better. I think the kit is a bargain compared to other kits. There are just some things the directions don't tell you and some special tools you'll need.

Know first.
Good product fits like a glove be sure you have the 2" lift in front or it will hit when you hit a bump.

May not fit your F250 4X4 super crew. Only fits Lifted Trucks.
This does not fit all F250 2022 4X4 super crew diesel. IT ONLY FITS LIFTED TRUCKS! which at the time of purchase was not on Amazon website.There is a cross bracket on my front frame which upon installation the bracket they provide clears. However driving over a speed bump or going over train tracks the truck cross frame member is impacted by the rough country installed bracket on the front axle. The bad part is since I do not drive my truck often over speed bumps or train tracks in the last 30 days, the return timeframe is passed - hopefully Amazon customer service resolves this. You can see on the photos where the rough country bracket was getting hit as its paint is removed and slightly dented. The stabilizers are stiff as can be which is nice for stabilizers , not so nice if you have the N3 shocks as its a rough ride, rough country puts the rough ride on the paved road as if your riding in the country roads. Their bed toppers are nice.
