JKS recommends installing a steering damper that utilizes a 1/2 id spherical bearing on the axle end with there front track bar brace.

Who makes this kind of damper?

I called them and asked them what make or brand that they recommend but they guy I talked to could not tell me.

I've never heard of a steering stabilizer with a spherical bearing in place of a bushing, thats really odd. I'd just get a regular one and use spacers.

I was gona say I'd never shell out the $$ for the fox stabilizer. I know people that don't even run stabilizers.
