I installed my Fox stabilizer Saturday, along w/ my RK 2.5" Max PRO suspension. I'm still using my OEM tie rod since the Moog ends I got were bent, but it installed fine and is not pushing. I am using a Jeepswag relo bracket, FWIW.

I have no regrets on my fox SS. It works great! You can justify the money by having a few less beers during the week or skipping Dinner one night! Like the man before said it's 60 dollar difference. Your beer is gone while he still has cool looking fox SS and you still have a white rocket up front! It's all in how you look at it!

Anyone reading this thread should know that the bilstein ss pushes the steering slightly left going down the highway. Unacceptable to me. Selling mine.
I'm going to the fox or back to the stock ss. I disagree with guys who think that a steering stabilizer is unecessary or unimportant. I've driven a lot with mine removed and the steering is much "flightier" on the road without one. I'm running 37's.

I've been running the Bilstein stabilizer (along w/ 4 blistein shocks) on my 11 Rubi Unl. I think the Bilstein stabilizer is an improvement, and it doesn't push my steering any direction.
Once I replaced that factory plastic "air dam" w/ a RR front skid I saw my stabilzer was sitting pretty low; I relocated it w/ the Jeep Swag relocation bracket and everything seems to be working good.
$200 for that Fox stablizer seems like too much; half that and I might go for it, but my Bilstein should last a while.
Personally I think the JK is helped by the stabilizer.
