Unfortunantly I have the same lift. I put about 500 pounds in the back (tools) and it smoothed the ride out. I was hoping after a year it would be ok to remove the weight but not yet, I tried it this weekend but it's still stiff. A lot of threads awhile back complained about rustys stuff sagging quick, I quess he overcompensated I'm still at 3 " in the back and front a year after installing a 2" lift, AAL at that. And if it had sagged I'd be here complaining about it. LoL no pleasing people I guess.

 

I'll agree on the no nitro shock if we are talking about the standard white body stuff all the lift COs have. If you are talking yellow or grey bodied shocks, OME or Bilstine, that may be a completely different story. Valving is much better. ANY OME shock is going ride better than ANY white body shock, worth the money better. They might cast 50% more but they are >100% better.

 

I got my rs5000 shocks at sears and they installed them. $230 for everything.

 

or white bodies shipped for $120-$150 and installed in all 4 corners in about an hour

 

Ranchos are better than those generic white body shocks. Cheapest I could find them was $50 a piece online, plus ten shipping.

 

I paid $20 more, plus tax, and got them installed for free

 

the main gripe with rancho's is that rancho is specifically marketed for the truck/full body suv crowd the valving for lighter vehicles is not tuned all that well.

and call RC and get the 10% discount, 2 shocks shipped with 3 day shipping was $57.xx
