Rancho RS9000XL 2-3″ Rear Lift Shocks for 1953-1975 Jeep CJ5, CJ6 4WD

Part Number: RS999113

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series defines versatility for classic Jeep applications, featuring a globally recognized 9-position manual adjustment knob. This Tier 2 adjustable system allows owners of the Jeep CJ and FJ-9 to instantly transition from a soft street ride to a firm setting for off-road stability or heavy cargo. Engineered to accommodate 2-3 inches of rear lift, these shocks solve the compromise between daily comfort and rugged performance by giving the driver total control over damping forces.

Features

• 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine distinct levels of damping to ensure the perfect ride quality for any terrain or load.
• Large Shock Body: A 2.75-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during sustained cycling.
• Nitrogen Gas Charged: High-pressure gas optimization provides immediate response to surface changes to ensure consistent tire-to-road contact.
• Polyurethane Bushings: High-performance polyurethane material provides enhanced durability and pivot rigidity to ensure long-term service life in harsh environments.

Yes, these units are specifically listed for the AM General FJ-9 and 1953-1975 Jeep CJ series 4WD models.
