Frequently Asked Questions

How do I adjust the firmness of these shocks?
The RS9000XL features a manual 9-position knob located at the base of the shock body. Turning the knob allows you to click through settings ranging from 1 (softest) to 9 (firmest).

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured with the correct travel lengths to work with vehicles at factory height or those with up to a 2-inch suspension lift.

What is the benefit of the 9-position adjustment?
It allows for “on-the-fly” tuning. If you are towing a trailer, you can dial the shocks to a higher setting to reduce sway; for empty highway driving, you can lower the setting for maximum comfort.
