What settings do you have you shocks dialed in at there Eric?

Currently running 3 in front, 3 in rear. The fronts were at 2, but after looking at the 1/2" of clearance between my leaf spring and bump stop, I bumped it up to 3. Pretty soon I'm going to have no articulation in the front!

I'm not sure how JohnBoy gets away with riding on setting 1. Must drive like an old man! My X would be all over the place if it was that soft of a ride.

I do wish I had the in-cab adjustment system from Rancho. I'm holding off on new shocks for when they do that promotion again where you buy 4 shocks and get the in-cab adjuster for free. I wish I would have done it last fall when they were running it.

Thanks everyone for the heads up on the Rancho buy 3 get one free. I just checked Samsoffroad and they are also participating in the offer. With an individual cost of $75 each, plus free shipping. With tax that makes it about $224 out the door. That puts them back at the top for The Best Price!!
I'll be ordering mine at 12:01a.m. on 3-1-05.

That's a hot price for $224 delivered there Paul!

You'll like the 9000's even more at that price

The Ex need quality shocks!! There is no doubt about it!! I just took my Ex on a trip to PA from NC, and am still amazed at the ride!! I got my Pro Comp ES9000's from www.4wheelonline.com, 4 shocks, boots, and a steering stabilizer for 185.56(shipping included) out the door!! Im very happy with them so far!!
