Part Number: RS999136

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series provides unparalleled versatility for owners who demand total control over their vehicle’s damping characteristics. Featuring a globally recognized 9-position manual adjustment knob, these shocks allow you to instantly tune your ride from a soft street feel to a firm setting for heavy towing or aggressive off-road use. Engineered for the 1990-1993 Ford Explorer 4WD, this set is specifically configured for vehicles with a 2.5-inch lift, ensuring optimal piston travel and ride quality.

Features

• 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine distinct levels of damping resistance 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-duty use.
• Nitrogen Gas Charged: High-pressure gas charging provides a faster response rate and reduced aeration to ensure precise handling and stability.
• Heavy-Duty Rod: A 18mm nitro-carburized piston rod provides exceptional structural rigidity to ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I adjust the firmness of these shocks?
The RS9000XL features an external 9-position knob at the base of the shock body that can be turned by hand to increase or decrease damping resistance.

Will these shocks lift my Ford Explorer?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically lengthened and valved to be used on vehicles that already have a 2.5-inch suspension lift installed.

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