Rancho VS Bilstein ??????????
Okay, I've narrowed down the shocks to the Bilstein 5150 or the Rancho RS9000. I really like the fact that you can adjust the Rancho and I've had great luck with bilstein's on full size applications. I just wanted to run it by the forum to get some opinions.
What does everyone think?
I'm also curious if anyone knows if the Rancho 9000XL with fit the JK's. It looks semi truck big so I'm not sure if they will have an application for our vehicles. And last but not least. Is anyone running the on board shock control unit for the RS9000? If so what do you think? Worth the money? Does it hold it's settings or is it something you have to mess with everyday?
Thanks!

Not sure on the fit question, but I ran the RS9000 series on my F-150. They were OK. I have had much better experience with the Bilsteins in the past. I just do not feel I got my moneys worth from the Ranchos. It was either to soft, or to firm, never could find a sweet spot. Plus the handled crappy on really bumpy roads. I had the onboard adjustment system also.
