No Rancho 9000's for a no lift truck

I inquired through the Rancho web site for shocks for my truck..

The reply I got back was there are no 9000 series shocks for a "non-lifted" F-350.

Makes me wonder what kind of Rancho 9000's's are in my Tech R4 kit.

Thank you for your interest in Rancho products.

unfortunately for a stock ride height 2011 Ford F-350 Rancho does not offer a 9000 series shock. I do however offer a steering stabilizer that will bolt to the original equipment mounting points the part number for this is RS5415.

Rancho Suspension: Suspension » 2011 - 2012 F250 / F350 Super Duty 4WD Suspension Systems, Lift Kits, Leveling Systems & Shocks

You will need these for a stock no lift truck:

2-RS999042 (front)

2-RS999254 (rear)

RedBoat's right (those are what I bought). It's also been determined (thanks to Dim Sum) that Rear: RS999047 will work as well.

Good reading here:

RS999042 it will be.
I looked up a 201 on the Rancho site, and the drop downs give all the choices I need. 2010 comes up with the part number.

My only concern with these is the possibility of just something else to go wrong, the adjustable part. Compared to a premium non adjustable shock such as the Bilsteins (which are equally hard to find the right application).

I have the Firestone Tech R4 kit and that includes 9000's tied into the air bags.


Looks like RS5415 is the correct number for the Rancho stabilizer.
That also is tough to find in a Bilstein number.
