coilover shocks
I was wondering if there are any coilover shocks that arnt over 120 $ for my 4x4 lifted f-150. I have rancho RS9000XL on the truck now and i was wondering if they made a coilover kit for that shock as well.
thanks

I really doubt it. That small of a diameter the springs are going to expensive to produce for that much weight, plus the shock bodies should be threaded and that's a lot of shock for a lifted truck. I don't think there is enough demand for a low cost coil over to be produced because at some point the 4x4 F150s went to torsion bars rather than coils so it's not a direct replacement.
Is there a reason you want coil overs other than the appearance?

Procomp has a series and there is another company that makes hellacious coil overs. I know bilstien has a line of shocks that are tune-able, you can pull them a part and change the valving to your hearts content. All of your wants are doable without switching to coil overs. Hal QA1 is another good choice for adjustable shocks.
I wouldn't suggest going too far from the stock spring rates.
