Rancho’s RS9000XL shock
We did some SOTP testing at 4wheel parts in Sacramento on this very subject. Nice looking fatty shocks... They do work pretty decently(better than stock!) and are a good price. Here's the rub-- while 6 way adjustable on compression, they are not rebound adjustable. Comparing to the MX-6's they have, the MX-6's were a little better we felt. They are also adjustable but when you firm up the compression, you firm up the rebound too... I personally liked that better. Another guy there had an '03 2500 4x4 with 5100 bilsteins he got from Lorenz. Apparently they are valved just for the truck and the ride was a little better everyone felt. It appears that the Ranchos only real advantage was being "bigger" therefore holding more oil and maybe less fade. All of this was very subjective!!! An opinion only! I think you could buy the Ranchos and not knowing about the others be very happy with them.
