Mine has different brackets than the JD one , maybe someone with the same brand can help me
 






Its really basic and mounts just like the JD one only the rancho bracket doesn't wrap around the engine crossmember - it only uses the bottom of it. Mount the bracket on the furthest end of the engine crossmember on the driver side. Drill 2 holes but make sure not to hit the brake lines. Turn full lock one way and then install the shock in the corresponding position (fully extended or closed) and tighten the u-bolts on the steering drag link.

I have the Rancho stabilizer but dont have any pictures of it that I could find. I did find this thread http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=102694 with a few pictures.
 






Thanks Brian that did help some , i got the stabilizer from bmxking5 aka Bryan and i never seen a pic of his setup on his rig , and also now im missing all but one of the bolts , so i'm going to have to get hardware for it now too , hopefully i can get this thing put on soon and see if it helps my steering at highway speeds
