Rancho / truck shocks

Post by YAM93 »

Anybody have any experience with Rancho shocks or similar ones? Looking to beef up my SUV's suspension, but not go totally crazy or lift kit.

I had 5000 and 9000 when they existed. AWESOME. The 9000's were the 5 way adjustable and they were a beautiful thing. You could even get the remote adjust and do it in cab on the fly. Worth the money. The 5000 were good but a little stiff for day to day stuff. Great for the trail.

The 9000s are still around think. Bilstiens are good for the Durango too. But both will make the truck ride alot more stiff.
