Default Anyone using Rancho Shocks?

I have no need for the 9000's with the adjuster ****. But the 5000's seem to me like a good choice. Or the Monroe Reflex. Either way they're 50% off so I'm not sure which to go with.

I know I have a 2001 which has a little different setup compared to your 2006, but I replaced my Monroe Gas Magnum shocks in the front with RS5000s. I am very happy, nice and stiff like a truck should be. They are meant for mild off-roading, Reflexes are meant (supposedly) for a stiff ride on road (not that they can't take a bit of off roading ).

I run the 9000s with adjustment. Set the **** dead in the middle the day I put them on in '05 and haven't touched them since.

Both Rancho and Monroe are Tenneco shocks, so the quality should be very similar. Lot of RS5000s out there, must be a reason...
