Rancho RS9000XL 0-2″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1987 GMC V2500 4WD

Part Number: RS999118

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series is the global benchmark for adjustable damping control, specifically engineered to handle the demands of both daily driving and heavy-duty towing. Featuring a massive 2.75-inch body diameter, these shocks utilize a 9-position manual tuning knob that allows you to instantly adjust your ride profile from soft to firm. This versatility ensures that your GMC V2500 maintains optimal stability and comfort regardless of payload or terrain.

Features

• 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine distinct levels of damping force to ensure custom ride control for towing, hauling, or street cruising.
• Large Shock Body: The 2.75-inch outer diameter provides increased fluid capacity to ensure lower operating temperatures and reduced fade during heavy-use cycles.
• Nitro-Carburized Rod: A 18mm heavy-duty piston rod provides superior scuff resistance and corrosion protection to ensure long-term seal integrity.
• Polyurethane Bushings: High-performance polyurethane material provides enhanced durability and reduced deflection to ensure consistent geometry under load.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I adjust the firmness of these shocks?
The RS999118 features an external 9-position knob located at the base of the shock body. Simply turn the dial to your desired setting; 1 is the softest for street comfort, and 9 is the firmest for towing.

Do these shocks create a 2-inch lift for my GMC?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct travel lengths to accommodate vehicles already equipped with 0 to 2 inches of rear lift.

What is the benefit of the large 2.75-inch body?
The larger body houses more oil, which helps dissipate heat more effectively than standard shocks. This prevents “shock fade” where the damping becomes soft and bouncy during sustained use.
