Review on πŸš— RS9000XL RS999221 Shock Absorber by Rancho by Mike Slippy

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Quality control issues

I've had RS 9000's on another truck and they work fine. But I ran into some quality control issues with both these and these new ones. On these new ones the hole in the washer is too small to slip through the shock rod so I had to reuse washers from my old shocks. The adjustment knobs are very difficult to turn by hand and I dare not use a tool for small plastic knobs. Also, the numbers on the buttons are very hard to see, so I'm not sure how to fine-tune them. I believe they should have 9 settings but since there are no instructions I'm not sure. I can only get 6 clicks by turning the knobs by hand then it becomes too hard to keep turning. I'm kicking myself for having them installed before checking the adjustment knobs. If they don't loosen with use, I'll have to go to the trouble of getting them back.
