Rancho in cab controller installed...
Well, I finally installed the Rancho in cab controller for my 9000x shocks.
The installation was pretty simple, just time consuming (about 5 hours total), but the gauges look really cool lit up, and it's nice to be able to adjust the shocks without having to climb under the truck.
One thing that surprised me... It takes less than 10 seconds to adjust the shocks from 1 to 9 using the controller. Of course, after I thought about it, it made sense, considering not alot of air is needed to increase the pressure in such a small line.
Anyways...Just wanted to let anyone who has 9000x shocks that if you are pondering the controller, I really think it was worth it. We are doing alot of camping (towing the trailer), and it is nice to be able to adjust the ride while going down the road...

Great info, just one question. Where did you mount the compressor? I have 9000Xs on my truck and the in-cab controls are waiting to be installed. I took the compressor out of the box the other night and it doesn't seem to fit anywhere under the hood. If you could snap a pic that would be even better. Great looking truck!

Super Scott,
I'll take a pic of the compressor tomorrow and post it in my gallery. I mounted it on the driver's side, between the headlight, and the large canister (not sure what it is)...
