do these offer an improvement over stock? i know they are adjustable which gives a softer ride, but i thought you wanted a stiff suspension for performance? also how hard are they to install? thanks guys..
thats an awesome price, i was told $105 each at "trick trucks" in MD

Weird - here is the link I was looking at: http://www.samsoffroad.com/ranchopromo.htm
I suggest you double check when making an order. If they are available now - good find!

so which of these are people using on their vx's??? my stockers are stiff, but i thought thats the way they were supposed to be. ive gotten used to it, and appreciate the stiffness in s curves, and cornering........advise please, while they are on sale!!!!!

Rancho RS9000X (part# 99214-front; 99215-rear)
Note that these part numbers are valid for the STOCK height as well as for any lift 3" and below.
Any higher than 3" lift, you're on your own!
PS: I paid $290 a couple of months ago. Bastards.
(Kidding; they are SO worth $290...it's just that a 25% discount would have been cool too.)

I can't even describe the improvement, it's so good.Originally Posted by etlsport
The stock shocks are certainly 'heavy duty'...some would say TOO heavy duty. After almost 65000 miles (split between Minnesota and Florida, according to CarFax), my shocks were starting to feel like concrete pillars.
After switching to Ranchos (and OME913 springs), my ride is much better. Smoother, quieter, you name it.
But I can also feel the road better. The OEM shocks were so hard that my tires were just bouncing all over the road.
If you really feel the need for stiffer shocks, then just dial the Ranchos up to "9".
I told myself I'd start at "1" and work my way up, but I'm loving it as-is for now!
