Part Number: RS999115

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series provides industry-leading versatility for the International Scout 80 and 800. Featuring a globally recognized 9-position manual adjustment knob, these shocks allow drivers to instantly tune damping levels to suit specific terrains or cargo loads. Whether you are navigating rugged trails or maintaining highway stability, this adjustable solution eliminates the compromise between off-road articulation and street comfort.

Features

• 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine distinct levels of damping control to ensure the driver can transition from soft street driving to firm towing performance.
• Nitrogen Gas Charging: Pressurized nitrogen gas provides a consistent response by reducing aeration and foaming to ensure stable performance under high-cycle conditions.
• Large Shock Body: A heavy-duty 2.75-inch diameter body provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during sustained off-road use.
• Protective Boot: A durable red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure longevity against rock chips and debris.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I adjust the firmness of these shocks?
The RS9000XL features a 9-position knob located at the base of the shock body. Turning the knob allows you to manually cycle through settings from 1 (softest) to 9 (firmest).

Do these shocks provide the lift for my Scout?
No, these shocks are specifically configured for a vehicle that already has 3 to 4 inches of lift height. They provide the necessary travel and length but do not create the lift themselves.

What is the benefit of the larger shock body?
The 2.75-inch body holds more oil than standard shocks, which helps dissipate heat more effectively, preventing “shock fade” during long periods of off-road activity.
