Question Bilstein Steering stabilizer ??

Has anyone installed a Bilstein steering stabilizer on their K10 / K5. I am installing Bilstein 5100 series absorbers and wanted to use their steering stabilizer also but they don't list an application. I'm kinda anal about wanting it to match if possible ...
Anyone use one on this era of a truck? If so do you know a part number?
Thanks.

Sorry, I can't help, but I do have a question. Were steering stabilizers only available on K series trucks, or were they an option for 2wd as well?

Subscribing.
I'll need to replace my steering stabilizer as well. In the past I had the double (facing each other, not stacked) stabilizers from skyjacker. They seemed to work well. I think for the stabilizer, you don't really want a nitrogen charged 'shock' but I could be wrong. I believe they were oil filled and worked well for me in the past, as it slows down the movement in either direction.

I put the Skyjacker nitro shocks on this time, but need to get the stabilizers. Curious though, where did you pick up the Bilstein shock from. I'd be curious about what you think of them once you start to use them.
