Shock absorbers Rancho or Monroe
Went with Monroe oespectrum. No complaints so far
Pros: no complaints
I change mine to bridgestone xm2plus size 185/50/15, rim 15/6.5j/et40. Monroe absorber with eibach spring. And put on ultra racing engine bar and rear antirollbar. Handling so nice, feel the different. I use for daily drive.
Pros: Handling so nice
If you care about ride quality buy monroe.
Pros: good ride quality
I’ve rocked Monroe’s before and never had an issue.
Pros: no issues
Get some Monroe Reflex shocks . Not as good as Bilstiens but very good shocks and a good price also
Pros: very good shocks
Cons: not as good
I have changed the 4 shock absorbers for new "RideSense" from Monroe, like the originals and the same thing continues to happen. The change between "Comfort" and "Sport" is also noticeable, but I do not perceive that the active function that regulates the suspension when cornering is working.
Pros: change between Comfort/Sport noticeable
Cons: active function not working
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat CC
Mileage: 120000 km
And the adjustable 9000 series are so stiff even on the softest settings. Had them for a while on my E-350 shuttle bus which weighs in just under 10k lbs.
Cons: so stiff even
Vehicle:
Ford
Those factory Ranchos are terrible. They are stiff as heck.
Cons: stiff as heck, terrible
Vehicle:
Chevrolet
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
