Shock absorbers FOX or Rancho
Ended up moving into a 2019 3500, and doing a Thuren 1.75 level with the Fox shocks and AEV 17" Saltas and 37" Falken AT4s.
After experiencing them... as a cheapskate... id pay full price, absolutely worth it
Pros: absolutely worth it
Vehicle:
Jeep Cherokee
It's the Rancho's. I like a stiffer ride but if you swap out for Bilstein 5100's it would 2x better.
Pros: 2x better
Cons: stiffer ride
I bought some rancho rs5000x shocks and really like them on my 99 TJ. Stock height.
Pros: really like them
Vehicle:
Jeep
Part number: RS5000X
I don't have a lot of comparison points, but I went Fox and love them. Great ride, but not at all sloppy, and really improved the handling.
Pros: great ride, improved handling
Cons: not at all sloppy
Part number: 985-24-084
I put Foxes on about 1500 miles ago, they’ve been great so far. It’s all about the driving you do - I’m 100% on road, so they work for me.
Pros: they’ve been great
Mileage: 2414 km
Fox 2.5" internal bypass shock and springs off a 2023 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro.
Adds about 1" in height. Rides a bit firmer that stock shocks on paved roads and performs great off-road.
Pros: performs great off-road
Cons: firmer on paved roads
Vehicle:
Toyota 4runner
Mileage: 5000 km
Rancho gets a lot of hate on the roads. I don't know what they are worth but they seem decently built from here !
Pros: decently built
Cons: gets a lot of hate
I haven't really been impressed with the RS500x. Better than Rough Country but not by much.
Pros: better than Rough Country
Cons: not very impressive
Pass on Rancho. I did a full set of them 4 years ago. Shop I had them done through is no longer in business. Even with receipts and invoices Rancho refuses to honor their warranty.
Cons: warranty not honored
