Rancho RS9000XL 2-3″ Front Lift Shocks for 1941-1963 Jeep MB, M38 4WD

Part Number: RS999119

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series delivers industry-leading versatility for classic Jeep and utility applications. Engineered with a global-first 9-position manual tuning system, these shocks allow owners to instantly adjust damping levels to compensate for varying payloads or terrain. Whether restoring a vintage military Jeep or maintaining a fleet vehicle, these shocks provide the specific valving control needed to transition from smooth highway cruising to firm off-road stability.

Features

• 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine distinct levels of damping to ensure the driver can customize ride quality for towing, hauling, or street use.
• Large Diameter Body: The 2.75-inch heavy-duty tube construction provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during high-cycle use.
• Nitrogen Gas Charged: High-pressure gas optimization provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance under load.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl bellows provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against road debris.
