Which set up is best? I currently have the dual shock set up like the pictures which requires removing the stock one, but what about the single factory replacement shocks? As always, data > opinions. Thanks in advance

Not sure if I notice a change in my dual, or if its the placebo effect in my head. Curious about the well known brands like Fox & Bilstein OEM replacements though
I know you're curious about the single factory replacement, but I have the PMF dual steering stabilizer with FOX shocks and recommend it. Tightened up the steering and made it feel more sturdy, which was a big improvement over the rough country set up I had beforehand. And the rough country shocks started leaking with only a couple thousand miles on them. So far zero issues with the new setup. Hope this helps.
When I first got my truck it was running 33" M/T on the stock 20" rims and no steering stabilizer. It was super squirrelly. When I got my lift I went with 22" rim wrapped in 37" tires. I now have the Dual Fox steering stabilizer and it drives like a dream. Definitely recommend.
My single Bilstein OEM replacement works like a champ. Give the wheel a 1/2 turn (like pulling out from a side street), as you drive it will return to center. Even making a full rotation, it returns to center VERY easy. Driving over pretty severe bumps or holes the steering is controlled.
I got an ICON dual setup that just needs the stabs, just no need just yet.
I have some death wobble since I installed my 325's and plan to install the BDS Dual Stabilizer in the next couple of weeks. I'll let you know how it works out.
