Congrats on the decision, T5. Wish OME had a deal like that.

 

I truly hope the Ranchos work for you and you don't have all the horrible stories of Rancho that I do when you are done. Personally,, I would hesitate to buy any shock that the manufacture has to offer 1 out of 4 for free just to get them off the shelf. I fully understand that I am biased against Rancho, but it IS based on personal experience. The only product they produce that I might buy,,,, the oil pan skid plate!,,,, Dam you Rancho,, You are gonna get my money one way or the other

 

I am also looking at the Rancho 9000 along with a leveling kit(pucks only no springs).

The one question I have for those with Bilsteins is, did they increase the firmness of our Jeep at all?

Thanks,
Mike P

 

It is a nice piece. And again sorry about your experience with Rancho, we do our best to make all happy.

Monotubes, in general, offer a firmer ride at all times. Our RS9000XL's offer a soft or firm ride...
While you are looking at leveling kits, take a moment and look at ours.

RS66109BR9 for a 4 door with our adjustable shocks.

RS66108BR9 for a 2 door with our adjustable shocks.

 

JKS ACOS for the front to level- last spacer you'll ever need to buy.

 

I own a small wheeling "park", we keep it free. We have had two of our group install and them remove the Bilstien 5100's because they were firmer than they wanted. They are a high quality shock no bones about it but they are stiffer than some people prefer myself included. This is all very speculative and each person will have a different requirement that feels the best for them. To each his own...

 

These are adjustable to.



Haven't been able to use them in the dirt yet, but
I heard they're good

Jk08, King shocks rock! How much did they run you for a set of adjustables with remote resis? They are on my "list" for my next set of upgrades.

 

Bilsteins. Swapped oyt the RC and no comparison on the road. Have not taken them offroad but I hear good things
