Okay i have tried to use the search engine but keep getting an error.

I am thinking about going with the Rancho 4 inch lift with 9000 shocks. Does anybody have any experience with this lift? With the rebate it seems like a good deal with all the parts you are getting. My current lift is a BB spacer lift, and after I installed the heavy front bumper and winch my front coils can no longer take the weight and the sag is killing me. So any Info on this kit would be greatly appreciated Thank you

I got the same error you got but I went through Google and found this link on the SPORT.
Got time to read? It's a long thread.

Let me know if you have any questions.

I can tell you to consider the RS7000MT shock. I installed a set a week ago and man do they ride well! Look sick too.

I ran the Rancho 4" Sport lift on my 07 2-dr and it rides OK... Tall enough to run 37's easily however, the height apparently caused my rear shaft to fail... IF I were to run it I would at the very least purchase some rear adjustable upper control arms to help with pinion angle.

I took the springs off (sitting at my house if you want them for $150) but kept all the other peices on for now. I switched the springs out to Old Man Emu 2" HD springs (netted approx. 3" lift) and am much happier with the lift height and 35's.

I also went ahead and installed some Clayton's Rear Upper Adjustable arms, and a custom Yoked 1310 driveshaft from a local driveshaft shop.

I love these shocks. It took a few days to go from the the RS9000XL to these, but man they eat up the bumps on the road and trail.

So which ones are better? The 9000, or the 7000?

Rancho

Both! OK I like the RS9000XL because you can have that soft ride ( I use 3-4 all the time) but some like a firmer ride so go to a 6-8.
Remember both come with our 90 day free ride offer.

How heavy duty are the front coils? Will there be a lot of sag with the aftermarket front bumper and winch? I would like to keep the jeep as level as possible, and do not want and rake in the front. I seem to be pretty set on the 9000 series shocks, but will have to look the 7000 series.

Im wandering that too. Im getting a stubby front bumper with a winch. So should i also order the 3/4 spacers as well?

shawlzy

Yeah i really don't want to have to use 3/4 or 1" spacers to level it out.
