I bought 4 shocks for my Jeep Wrangler TJ and 3 were bad: 2 never, ever expanded and one had a dead spot that wouldn’t go away even after cycling it over 30 times. I sent them all back and the two rears came first, both were good. The two fronts took a month to arrive and one had two dents in the body. Sent that back. I’ll get its replacement at 4WP where I can inspect it before I leave-not worth the $15 savings.

All parts and pieces were complete in 1 of the boxes but lacked the bushings for the top of the shock in the other. Unacceptable

Boxes looked like they were open prior, and the contents was unpacked and stuffed back in box.Adjustment knob is broken and a piece was in the bottom of box.

Super beefy, like the adjustability. You can make the ride more firm or soft. Just what I was looking for, for my jeep ZJ with 4.5 inches of lift in the front.

For the price this is a hell of a shock. Especially if it lasts for a long time. I installed these on my 2000 TJ Wrangler. The adjustable settings are amazing, set to soft for the trails and let them soak up every bump from boulders to ruts. Set to stiff for the ride home on the highway and take corners like youre in a sports car. No need to trailer to the trails, simply adjust these shocks for whatever terrain you are driving on. Honestly for the price I think these are very very hard to beat. Rancho hits it out of the park with these bad boys!!! 5 star all day long!!! Now I need to see about getting the in cab adjuster.

I used these to replace my Ranch RS5000s which was by far the worst and stiffest riding shock I've ever owned. These made a huge difference. By the way, I own a 2005 LJ rubicon which is relatively light.I started on setting 5 and quickly worked down to the softest setting (setting 1). I can actually drive my jeep now!On the negative side, the paint job is horrible. It looks like Ranch is paying a 12 year old 2 bucks an hour to put a quick coat of rustoleum on these things. The forums, including some Ranch reps, recommend a couple of coats of clear coat which I did. If you don't do this, especially if you live where the roads are salted, these things will be rusting in a year.I also saw a you tube video where a guy was complaining of the adjustable valves rusting up after 2-3 years. He pulled the adjustment knobs off and applied some marine grease down in the cavities so I did the same. I was shocked (pun intended) to find rust already inside even though these shocks had never been installed. I highly recommend this in addition to the painting.Lastly, the debate around boots on or boots off. When I removed the RS5000s, which did have the boots, I noticed that the shafts were clean. Therefore I decided to go back with the boots. If you don't care for the red there are other colors available for ordering.In summary, significantly improved ride but some quality issues that need to be addressed before install.

They fit and work as advertised. I don't think the price quite speaks for the quality... They appear to be good quality and work well, but not $90 worth. They're shock absorbers for gosh sakes. I've got them adjusted mid way (at "5") and haven't tried any other settings yet, but common sense tells me that it probably won't make a huge difference. We'll see some day, maybe.
