Rancho reminder. Performance report.
Tomorrow, October 31st, is the last day of Rancho's Shocktober 4 for 3 sale.
I ordered mine today at O'Reily's and was pleased to see that O'Reily's also had an additional $10.00 off per shock for $40.00 more off. To get the shocks, you must order by tomorrow and fill out, mail in the rebate coupon.

The Rancho's installed very easily with the wheels on. Fronts, remove top nut, bolt is welded or part of attachment bracket. Lower bolt, remove the nut. the bolt end has a washer with a tab on it. Pay attention to the tab position. Sprayed liquid wrench (the type that loosens) on the bolts before starting. Rear shocks are easier. Loosen top nut, the bolt end is part of the bracket. Remove the nut from the bottom mount and pull out bolt. Be sure to install the rubber boots to the shocks to keep the dirt off them. Install is the reverse, quick and easy again.
The shocks are set at 5 now. The ride is comfortable and the shocks do an amazingly better job of controlling the rocking of the truck driving on bad dipping gravel roadway. On the pavement, the ride is smooth, no bounciness, very quick recovery of road induced suspension activity.

Rear Shocks, Old and New.

Front Shocks, Old and New.
I have to say I really the like the ride with the Rancho 9000's.
