New steering damper needed with 08.5 upgrade?

My tie rod ends are shot so i figure i will replace with the upgraded 08.5 steering kit and pitman arm.Do i also need a new steering damper\shock, or does the one from my 06 fit?it seems to be good still.
Thanks

The 08.5 steering should come with the bracket so I think the dampener will fit. I'm pretty sure you need the new pitman arm though, MOPAR part # 68039930AA.
