Part Number: RS999001

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series provides industry-leading versatility for your Chevy Suburban through its global-pioneering 9-position manual tuning system. By utilizing a 9-position knob, these shocks allow you to instantly adjust your damping profile from a soft street ride to a firm setting optimized for heavy towing or off-road excursions. Engineered for vehicles with 0.5 to 4 inches of front lift, these shocks deliver a customized driving experience that adapts to any terrain or load requirement.

Features

• 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine distinct levels of damping to ensure the driver can fine-tune ride quality for street, tow, or trail.
• Large Shock Body: A heavy-duty 2.75-inch diameter body provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during demanding use.
• Nitrogen Gas Charged: High-pressure gas optimization provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance.
• Protective Boot: A durable liquid-metallic finish and included bellows boot provide protection for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity.

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 1 (softest) to 9 (firmest) without tools.

Will these shocks lift my Chevy Suburban?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles that have already been equipped with a 0.5″ to 4″ lift kit.

What is the benefit of the larger 2.75-inch body?
The larger body holds more oil, which helps dissipate heat more effectively than standard shocks, preventing “shock fade” during prolonged off-road use.
