Yeah i was just looking on the fabtech website and it said there made specifically for the trucks with the 6 inch fabtech lift in them. Back to the drawing board i guess. I wonder if the steering stabilizer for the 2 wheel drive model will fit? any suggestions on that?

An old member vanoford put that kit on his truck and it had a level and body lift only.

Steering stabilizers cure bump steer not vibrations in the steering wheel, installing one will not help your issue in any way. Don't waste your money. Also they are intended for 35 in and over tires as the added weight of the wheel adds to bump steer.

are you running mud tires? They cause lots of steering wheel vibration. The stabilizer is not your answer unfortunately

You will never get your factory ride back but it will definately help. You will still have bump steer, just much less severe bump steer. It doesn't cure the issue 100%
