I just did the exact same order. Even the shipping was the same. Hope it gets here ok. Thanks for posting yours as I had not checked Autoplicity and Amazon is @$20 a shock higher.

Got all my stuff today from Autoplicity. Ordered the 7th and arrived the 14th and was the cheapest place I found thanks to Sigskydiver suggesting them. Filled out a survey they sent and they are supposed to credit $5 of my order for doing the survey.
If anyone wants, they also sent me a coupon code for 25% off shipping, it is 25Offshipping.
Now if it would stop raining I might actually get a chance to put my pretty new shocks on. I want to get the rebate stuff filled out and in the mail ASAP so that gets moving too. Thanks to all for the info and especially Riggers for tuning all of us guys into this sweet deal!
Pics when I get them on...

I thought I would jump on this since the cost is under $50 total once you get the rebate. less if you sell.

So I completed the order - shocks on Amazon, RS6444 lift kit on Autoplicity. Paid for Autoplicity through Amazon Marketplace and the order receipt DOES NOT include the part number, which the rebate requires.

I better be able to fix this or I just messed up big time!

You don't get them individual you buy a set of four for a discounted price of like $329.00.

Rancho RS9000XL Shocks Complete Set of 4 (2 Front, 2 Rear): $443.99 w/ Free Shipping » On Sale - See Price in Cart cart price is $329


You put what your vehicle make and model and they get the ones you need. I added the part numbers into the notes when I purchased mine.

Also make sure your quantity is 1 because the 1 quantity includes 2 front and 2 rear.

The shocks you got, did you get the standard length? I assume you bought the lift through them also?

In the future I am going to upgrade the springs, if I got the longer shocks, would they work for now at the stock ride highth?

When you got the rebate back, was it a debit card with $500 dollars on it? Can you use it to pay off the credit card with the purchase?

Thanks for any help.

Thanks for any help.

1. I got the standard shocks for the X. But I do have the V/B mod codes on my X but still got the stock shocks.

2. I did not purchase them from the same place. I found out about this little deal after I had purchased my shocks. I then purchased the lift kit a few days later after Riggers posted this budget thread.

3. I am not sure about the longer shocks and how they work. You can always order another set when Rancho does their shock and awe again.

4. I spent my rebate on something else and its a Visa gift/debit type card. I am not sure if you can use it to pay off a credit card. My statement came in before I got the gift card so my bill got paid off before I received it.

So the standard length shocks are working good for the added lift?

Did you call them to order the correct shock model numbers?

Thanks Tim

Yes, they work with the added approx 2" there is a different shock part number for a 4" lift.

No, I did not call them but I did put in the "additional information" box the part numbers of the shocks I wanted when I was ordering.

$329 for all four 9000xl's? Shipped? I just paid $110. Each. That's like $111 more for the set. I've got sour grapes and sore ankles, never mind the rest.

Why didn't I check this thread before? Where were you timf150, when I was searching all over the internet for the best price, except where I should have been... which is right here!

I have been looking for you but can't seem to catch you.

RU sure you don't want to do a 2008 front end conversion. I have a nice 2008 king ranch bumper waiting to be used.
