u had the stock "rancho" shocks on your fx4 ?

a hint... they are rancho in name only...
any "branded" item is typically not as good as the real thing
(My wife runs around asking me to call her "Jessica")

my Rancho 9000 adjustable's are tough !

You may want to consider going with dual shocks or shocks with adjustable valving. Bilstein, King and Fox make excellent shocks but they are $$$$$.
