Description of Rancho RS999285 RS9000XL Series Shock

NINE LEVELS OF PERFORMANCE -- Nine-position easy-to-adjust knob allows customized damping control and firmness for on-road and off-road flexibility. DESIGNED FOR HARDWORKING VEHICLES -- Ideal for stock or lifted trucks, SUVs and Jeeps that tow, haul or go off road. INDUSTRY FIRST -- Recognized as the first nine-position manually adjustable shock series in the off-road market. REDUCES FADE -- Nitrogen gas pressurized to 120 PSI to minimize air-to-oil mixture and reduce damping performance fade and foaming. STRONG AND DURABLE -- Features an application-specific 18mm nitro-carburized piston rod to resist scuffs and corrosion, double-welded loops at stress areas and 1.25-in. sintered iron piston for enhanced structural integrity. HANDLES EXTREME TEMPERATURE CHANGES -- Up to 2.75-in. tri-tube body (application specific) filled with all-weather fluid allows for cooler operation, increased vehicle control and ability to withstand internal temperatures of -40 to 248°F. SMOOTH PERFORMANCE -- Polyurethane rebound bumper and bushings and graphite-filled fluon-banded piston help absorb ride harshness and enhance responsiveness to changing road conditions for an overall smoother ride. BUILT TO LAST -- Low-friction, self-lubricating seal retains gas and oil for quicker rebound and smoother compression while the long-lasting premium liquid metallic finish and polyvinyl protective boot ensures long life.

2008 F150 XLT 5.4 Flex Fuel Crew Cab

Works great on this truck. Flat turns, no nose-dive when braking, smooth ride. Too bad I didn't install it 100,000km ago.

Pros
  • GOLS Certification
Cons
  • Don't really like it, everything is fine

Big shocks in spares

installed in my 2004 Ford F150 XL. Much improvement over factory and installation was very easy. No jack was needed and I installed both in 30 minutes.

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • For the old

Big shocks. in spare parts

ride quality. Much better than the stock dampers on the F 150. They are also adjustable. The only thing I can fault is the red rubber case. It just doesn't look right on a blue truck. But that's not enough to give it less than 5 stars.

Pros
  • availability
Cons
  • high price

2006 F-150 Rancho in parts

Rancho kit. I first asked a neighbor for help with quick front end lifters that raise the front end a few inches. The front shocks were much more difficult to install compared to the rear shocks, a big difference. The rear shocks lasted a maximum of ten minutes each. I'm by no means a shade tree mechanic, and if I can do it, anyone can. I can't believe how easy they were to install, I really think my 9 year old son could do it! I didn't even think I needed shocks (80k miles) but I was wrong…

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Negative impression
