Review on ๐Ÿ”ง RS5188 RS5000 Series Shock Absorber by Rancho by Maurice Matlock

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great balance of softness and firmness for the money!

Very good dampers for the price. I switched from rs9000 shocks to these on the front of my 2000 Nissan Frontier and have no complaints. The cushioning isn't too soft or too hard, but if you want customization options, you're paying double the price. Installed quickly and now my truck feels a lot better. I will say that I like the RS9000 better as I can make the suspension stiffer for highway and dirt road riding or softer for off-road riding. These dampers also do not stop body roll due to lack of adjustment. However, at $50 per shock, that's the sweet spot.

Pros
  • pleasant
Cons
  • too boring
