Rancho RS9000XL 2.5-4″ Front Lift Shocks for 1969-1980 GMC K1500 4WD

Part Number: RS999001

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series delivers industry-leading versatility for the GMC K1500, featuring a globally recognized 9-position manual tuning system. By allowing drivers to adjust the damping levels across nine distinct settings, these shocks solve the compromise between daily street comfort and heavy-duty towing stability. Engineered for vehicles with 2.5 to 4 inches of front lift, these shocks provide custom-tailored ride control for any terrain or load requirement.

Features

• 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine levels of damping control to ensure the perfect balance between soft street cruising and firm off-road performance.
• Large Shock Body: The 2.75-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during heavy-duty use.
• Nitrogen Gas Charged: High-pressure gas charging provides a rapid response rate to ensure consistent tire-to-road contact on uneven surfaces.
• Polyurethane Bushings: Durable polyurethane material provides enhanced pivot longevity to ensure quiet operation and reduced vibration transfer.
