Default Steering stabilizer help - can't find one to fit

I have a 2014 JK sport. The tie rod was replaces with a heavy duty steersmarts tie rod, The OEM stabilizer mount will not fit the larger diameter tie rod so I bought a Synergy stabilizer clamp. The issue is the Synergy stabilizer clamp uses a 1/2 bolt, where the OE stabilizer uses either a 12 mm or 11 mm bolt. The bushings in the stabilizers are hardened and I can't drill them out to 1/2". Please advise me of a steering stabilizer that cost less than $100 that can be installed with 1/2" bolts (or 12 mm bolt on the knuckle end and a 1/2" bolt on the rod end). NOTE: The last one I had has the number 5624 stamped in it and the number X018K1 stamped in it. Unfortunately a crushed it on a rock and I can't cross either of those numbers to anything

I've used a Teraflex 9550VSS with a synergy clamp, although I had to push the sleeve out of the bushing for the bolt to fit. you can probably do the same with the factory SS. For the purpose of a SS, wasn't a big deal to remove that sleeve IMO.
