Curious to known your thoughts. Haven't made up my mind yet but am leaning towards the Rancho 9000 series.

Why don't you PM Bismic and ask him about the 7000s -- he probably has quite a few miles on them now.

Reason to go 9000s is if you have often varying loads or run larger tires -- I run mine on 3 just for the tires when empty and max (9) when the Camper is on...

Am thinking of going with a larger tire. I may in the future go with a 4" lift but not right now.

You'll have to change the shocks again if you lift it -- might want to go cheaper on shocks now if you really will be doing a lift...
