Rancho RS7000

Are Rancho RS7000's any good? I was planning on installing them on my 79 Bronco along with the existing stock shocks so I have quad front shocks. What do yo people think about them? Should I try it?

Make sure you get shocks valved for multiple shock application or the ride will be very rough and it may actually hinder the performace of your suspension.

what do you mean be patient? it's not about patients, it's about tons of people reading and nobody responding. They could at least say "I don't know."

if it doesnt get answered just reply a post with the word "bump". They seem to be putting rancho's on the new f150's so they cant be all that bad, i'm not sure what model though, hey, its worth a shot

I've had the Rancho RS5000's on my truck before, they didn't hold up too well. For a daily street driver, they might, but when i put mu plow on the front or took the truck off road, they wore out QUICK! I know have the Pro Comp ES9000's and they seem to be holding up quite well to my abuse.

But, like Ford79 said, for multiple shock applications, make sure whatever you get are rated to handle that setup.

Does the load rating of the Rancho's that I'm going to be adding really matter. I don't care if they get more wear on them. If they are longer than the stock ones that they will be mounted next to, what is the worst thing that can happen?
