    Rancho shock defect?

    I'm repeating this for effect... hahaha.

    New shocks way too soft? Something wrong? Ok, just had my mechanic install the Rancho shocks named above and we turned each adjustment all the way clockwise but these just bounce up and down about 3 times at every brake like bad shocks would... any suggestions?

    I got them off "Amazon /Just Suspension" for good price and got the rebate... they came very fast.

    Try the setting FrontRange mentioned in the first post. Rears at 4 and Fronts at 5. That will get you back to the feel of the stock suspension. After that, it's all personal preference.

    Rancho RS9000XL adjustments

    Thanks for the info Y33TREKker...
    I think I found the problem.

    FYI to anyone else:

    The little adjustment knobs on mine seemed to slip and so when the guys turned them all the way to the 9 where I asked, they really didn't turn them. I took pliers as my girlie wrists are weak and turned them to max and they are much better now.
