Description of Enhanced Performance Rancho RS999304 RS9000XL Shock Absorber

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.

Big shock! Don't listen to the ranch haters.

Significantly improved driveability! Used with Rancho 9000 1.5" jack blocks and quick jacks and 1/2" spacers for 2" front jacks. Great upgrade from stock on my 2010 Titan 4x.

Pros
  • STRONG AND DURABLE - Equipped with a special 18mm nitrocarburized piston rod that is abrasion and corrosion resistant, double welded in stress areas and 1.25" diameter. Pistons made from sintered iron for improved structural integrity
Cons
  • Only available in black

incorrectly described in specs

Not as advertised. The specs say 24 inches fully extended, but the ranch says 27. And it also says they are to be used with a truck already raised.

Pros
  • INDUSTRY FIRST -- Recognized as the first series of 9-position manually adjustable dampers in the off-road market
Cons
  • So-so

Large shock absorbers work well with shock absorbers

Great shock absorbers, best value. I installed them with my 4" Rancho Lift, they ride great and smooth - and they come free with MyRide! I can't wait to install and try this out!

Pros
  • DESIGNED FOR HEAVY VEHICLES - Ideal for trucks, SUVs and Jeeps that are towing, hauling or off-road driving
Cons
  • Negative Impression

So far disappointed.

Received a pair of RS999304 shock absorbers today. To my surprise, there aren't a word of instructions. Well, actually it's about 3 words. Something with gas pressure and do nothing. It's on a tiny piece of loose paper about 1/2"x2". There should be 9 settings but it seems there are only 4 stops on the handle. There is no way of knowing which setting you are on. There are numbers on the button (hard to read when holding it, can't see if you reach under the car), but there's no way of knowing…

Pros
  • STRONG AND DURABLE – Featuring 18mm nitrocarburized piston rod for special applications, abrasion and corrosion resistant, double welded contour in stressed areas and 1.25 inch. Sintered iron pistons for improved structural integrity
Cons
  • Not sure
