There is a Rancho rep that hangs out in the 99-03 section and he told me Rancho will have a rebate starting Sept 1-Oct.That is what I am waiting for....I hope they have some to sell.

RS999047 for the rear shocks
RS999042 for the front

These are the part numbers for a non-lifted F350.

Mine were shipped three weeks ago from Truckaddons with no issues; took a week to get them.

As far as the difference between settings, yes, you can tell as when I have set the shocks on 1, they were too cushy for me. I was curious about the difference between the settings and there it was noticeable.

Actually I found on the f350 the rears are RS999254 on a stock hieght.I read a few people have used the 047 on rear on a 350 but the one rancho calls for is the 254 part number... I believe for the f250 you are correct but Im not positive,ive read too many posts about them at this point...

Just replaced my f350 fx4 ranchos with the Bilstein 5100's, noticed a huge difference driving out of my drive over the curb onto the street; night and day improvement.

What is the part number for the Bilstein steering stabilizer?

The dial did seem to be well made but my first thought was there is no way I am crawling under the truck in bad weather to adjust the ride so I installed the MyRide system so I wouldn't have to do that. A whole lot easier on me, that's for sure.

I called Rancho to confirm this: RS999254 is for a dually while the RS999047 is for a single rear wheel F350; which is what I have. Their site doesn't really show this distinction and I thought for a minute TruckAddOns goofed, as they gave me the part numbers.

Was it firmer or softer than the stock Rancho's?

Funny I called truckaddons and they gave me the 254 number for the rears .I have a srw too.From all the threads ive read it appears both work but most have the 254 part number.

I just ordered the 999043 fronts and 999254 rears today from SD suspension alongwith the mail in rebate from Rancho that started today on several sites.Matt the Rancho engineer on the 99-03 section told me that is what I needed for the 2012 with a 2.5 front leveling kit.
