Stabilizer is a preference thing, depends on how cushy you like it. I haven't run one in years.
Most of the crossover kits are basically the same and will have some degree of roll steer which on a DD can be a pain. JCR replaces one of the tie rod end boots with a block to help stop it. I ran a set up for almost a year and really didn't care for it other than the fact I didn't have the bump steer I had with the stock set up.

Stabilizers are a preference not mandatory.

I've been using the JCR 1-ton setup as well... no bump steer.. but i do have some play. Also i don't run a stabilizer either.
