I have what looks to be that exact stabilizer on my truck right now. I put it on when I replaced all the shocks several years ago. It bolted right up and works great. It's been on there for probably 3 years now and I've never had an issue, no leaks, and steering feels good with no wobbling at all.
FWIW those look like the correct bolt kits for your application. One side will be a metal sleeve that slides into the rubber bushing of the base side and then bolts to the square housing on the axle, when you tighten it up it will compress the rubber enough that the nut should be a few threads past the locking portion. The other end will get the adapter piece bolted to it with the straight portion going through the rubber bushing and then the tapered portion will bolt into the steering arm. They are all lock nuts and I've never had them come loose.
