WHY??????
It is not needed, no matter what type of wheeling you do. Just use an OME and your set. If the steering is still sloppy deal with that as a separate issue.
Also, dual units, especially if you went to a coil over, which is not designed to work as a steering stabilizer, will burn out your steering pump.

A well designed dual steering stabilizer system uses 2 stabilizers of lower pressure gas than a single stabilizer. The end result is barely any difference between 1 stabiliazer and 2 except for price. Get a quality stabilizer such as OME and call it good. Just using a short shock like some suspension companies like to do isn't going to cut it.

I really don't have a problem with my steering. I am replacing my stock worn out damper and thought why not see if there is anything better than stock. I bought a stock damper yesterday, going to put it on today. I run a rovertyme 3inch springs with matching rovertyme radius arms. The steering was a little wandering before installing the radius arms. I also am going to change the power steering fluid and replace with lucas.

Take the stock shock back, they are crap. Best on the market is the Old Man Emu, by far.
