Rancho RS9000XL 2.5-4″ Front Lift Shocks for 1972-1993 Dodge W100, W150 4WD

Part Number: RS999114

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series provides industry-leading adjustability for classic Dodge and Plymouth 4WD applications. Featuring a 9-position manual tuning knob, these shocks allow drivers to instantly transition from a soft street ride to a firm setting for heavy towing or off-road stability. Engineered for vehicles with 2.5 to 4 inches of front lift, they deliver a custom-tailored damping experience that corrects the harsh ride often associated with lifted leaf spring suspensions.

Features

• 9-Position Tuning Knob: A manual adjustment dial provides nine levels of damping control to ensure the perfect ride for any terrain or load requirement.
• Large Shock Body: The 2.75-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operation and consistent performance during heavy use.
• Nitrogen Gas Charged: High-pressure gas optimization provides a faster response rate to ensure the tires maintain constant contact with the road surface.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty liquid metallic finish and included shock boot provide a barrier against debris to ensure long-term seal integrity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I adjust the settings on these shocks?
The RS9000XL features a manual knob located at the base of the shock body. Simply turn the dial to your desired setting (1 for softest, 9 for firmest).

Will these shocks lift my truck?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles that already have a 2.5 to 4-inch suspension lift installed.

Why is the bushing fitment tight on these models?
Due to the specific mounting pin tolerances on 1972-1993 Dodge/Plymouth axles, the bushings are designed for a high-interference fit; using a silicone-based lubricant during installation is highly recommended.
