My RS9000 shocks on the back are loose and rattling like crazy. Are the bushings covered under lifetime warranty, and or are they replaceable?

I thought my spare tire rack was the sole source for the rattle but it didn't go away after I 86'd it. I started checking for the source and found that the shocks were the problem. Anyone else seen this?

It's driving be batty!

 

Ah you gotta love rancho, im sure you will be informed by rancho, off road shocks have a 90 day waranty.

 

Turns out that the Rancho's need to be torqued to 100 Lb/Ft, uh, and I didn't tighten them that much.....

 

Is it the rubber that's shot, or that the bushing is loose? torq will keep that mettle bushing from moving but if it has wour bad,(its been baning for a while) the ears ,that the bolt go thru... it may bang again when to ear tars off! ...just some thing to look at why'll you are torking that nut and bolt.

 

Turns out it was the top of the shocks that were loose. I tightened them down until the shock bracket bent in on both sides enough to clamp the shock bushings. I think thick body washers ought to be on either side of the shock bushing....
