My rear shocks just got delivered, they are the correct part number and are already on the truck. The Rancho (branded) shocks I took off were not very good, I could compress them with one hand and they were very slow to extend. Not what I would have expected from a FX4 off road package shock and they only had 1540 miles on them.
