Part Number: RS999113

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series provides an industry-leading level of manual control for your 1972-1974 Jeep DJ5. Featuring a 9-position adjustable knob, these shocks allow you to instantly transition from a soft street ride to a firm setting for heavy-duty hauling or improved stability. Engineered to accommodate a 2.5-inch lift, this set delivers the versatility required for USPS FJ-9 models to maintain consistent handling across varying road conditions.

Features

• MyRide Tuning System: A 9-position manual adjustment knob provides a 400% change in damping force to ensure the driver can tune the ride for specific load requirements.
• Large Diameter Body: The 2.75-in. tube construction provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during prolonged use.
• Nitrogen Gas Charged: High-pressure gas optimization provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the oil seal to ensure longevity against road debris.
