Another thing I thought of while reading through the thread and those mentioning the rough ride. The factory shocks are probably the worst for rock crawling style offroad. I set my ranchos to 1 when on the trails, no rough ride. I have forgot and left them on 9 on a few times, only takes one set of bumps, and I am jarred into remembering. They also reduce your performance on the trails, too bouncy means possibility of tires leaving the ground, and possible loss of traction and worst case a broken CV joint....just a thought for those looking at buying new shocks.
