I ordered a rancho 5000 stabilizer from summitracing.com. It shows to be a direct replacement.

Heckethorn makes a direct replacement, costs in the mid $30 range. Most auto parts can have them or can get them.

I ordered the Rancho from Summit, too. Two things: first, the bolt it came with to connect it to the tie rod is a bit short, I'm planning on some Loc-tite on mine. Couldn't get the cotter pin in because the castle bolt wouldn't tighten far enough. Second, getting the old one off is a bear. I beat on it and beat on it with successively bigger hammers, broke the shock itself off the mount on the tie rod, no go. Tried to grind flats on it so I could use a wrench, no go. Finally got it off with a monkey wrench and a few well-placed words.
