Shock absorbers Rancho or Dobinsons
I also just went through TreatyOak for a Dobinsons twin tube. 2.5 up front, new UCA, rear bag delete(1”) and 1” springs. Sitting nice and level.
Pros: sitting nice and level
I'm really happy with them. They have eight adjustable settings both the front and the rear for preload and dampening. Otherwise my feelings about the Rancho shocks have been very favorable and the ride quality is at least equal to original factory with some adjustability for when I want to tow or go off-road and I like that.
Pros: adjustable settings, favorable ride
Vehicle:
Ford
Mileage: 195000 km
If budget isn’t a factor I have dobinsons ims front and mrr rear on my 100 and it’s super comfy. Nearly as nice as the factory ahc system, maybe just a tad firmer.
Pros: super comfy, tad firmer
Vehicle:
Toyota Land Cruiser
Dobinson is where it's at. Rides sooo smooth
Pros: rides sooo smooth
Went with Dobinson 3” coils, struts and shocks (heavy duty shocks for the rear). Truck feels planted now, a good bit firmer and much of the dive is gone.
Pros: truck feels planted, firmer
Cons: much of the dive is gone
2021 Trail Edition Dobinson coils/struts Dobinson shocks/add a leaf and Geolander 295/70-18’s. I’m 100% happy with the height, the ride and the look.
Pros: happy with ride, look
Rancho RS5000x are about $200 for a set of 4 and they are a much better product than Skyjacker hydros. Highly recommend them.
Pros: much better product
I put Rancho 7000? Mono tubes on our 2010 and 5100s on our 2012. Both our great and will last 100k miles.
Pros: great, will last 100k miles
Mileage: 160000 km
I put these Rancho RS9000XL Shocks on in 2018 on my 2007 Xterra. I've only put about 20K miles on since. Very disappointed in both the quality and the soft ride they provided. I put on Bilstein 5100s, so far they feel much better.
Cons: soft ride, poor quality
Vehicle:
Nissan
Mileage: 32186 km
Bought my truck new and my ranchos were already leaking. So my opinion on them are not high.
Cons: already leaking
