Frequently Asked Questions

How do I adjust the firmness of these shocks?
The RS9000XL features a 9-position manual knob located at the base of the shock body, allowing you to click through settings from soft to firm without tools.

Will these shocks lift my Chevy C10?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically valved and length-matched for vehicles already equipped with 1.5 inches of rear lift.

What is the benefit of the larger 2.75-inch body?
The increased surface area and oil volume allow the shock to dissipate heat more efficiently, preventing performance fade during heavy towing or long drives.
