I don’t mind the price difference in the fox, but part of me thinks “ if one is good, two is better”.
No to the dual stabilizers unless that is a look you are wanting.

The through type stabilizers are very popular because they allow even gas pressure loading on either side of the piston. It make it a very neutral feeling stabilizer, no difference in feel between the left or right side.

As others have mentioned, both the Fox and the TeraFlex stabilizers are good and if you plan on hitting the trail, get the stabilizer up above the tie rod to help protect it.

On the TeraFlex Falcon stabilizer, go with the JK stabilizer, it has the eye style end like the Fox stabilizer and will work better with aftermarket track bar brackets.

The Falcon Nexus 2.2 Adjustable allows you to adjust the stabilizer for firm, medium or soft, but it does cost a little more than the

If you're changing it and it's not an adjustable one, I don't think it's worth it. Get the orange Fox ATS Factory one, not the basic grey one.

I just have the regular Fox stabilizer, not the through shaft. It works fine. No issues. Slight improvement from stock.

+1 for the adjustable Falcon stabilizer, I love it with my 37’s, and do find that I use the adjustments depending on what I’m driving on. The firm freeway setting is my favorite.

Same here. Just added it as I get set to go up to 37s. Feels similar to stock, and even a bit lighter at low speed. Good deal from the folks at @Northridge4x4

I have the fox one and i am happy with it, noticable difference from stock and i also have 37s. I've read that a to stiff of one will ruin your power steering pump
No more-so than big fat tires running low pressure.

So Ive had the 37" MT Baja Boss AT and a 3.5" lift on for 500 miles now. I've driven back roads, city and highway (TN to FL) and am very happy with the steering.

I am running the FACTORY OEM steering stabilizer and have no complaints. I bought the fox 2.0 through shaft, but wanted to get a feel for the factory one felt like before swapping. I no longer feel like I need to change anything. Sent it back for a full refund.

My local shop said that the current rubicon SS is the strongest one that Jeep has made and he orders them for older jeep with death wobble to help customers save money.
