Rancho 9000 Adjustable Shocks

Is anybody Running the adjustable Rancho's on a PSD that is used to tow? I have a 2003 F-250 with the 7.3 and am due to replace the shock soon, I have read Bilstein is the way to go but I have owned 9000 on other leafspring vehicles and loved the adjustability.

Welcome to the FTE!!

I don't know about the 9000's but I am running the 5000's front and back with dual up front and they suck...

I have the Rancho 5000 but I found a set of Bilstiens I will probably get, I believe that would be an upgrade from the Ranchos

i ran rancho 9000s on all my trucks. On the wifes I run Bilsteins. Those are the only two shocks I will ever buy. The 9000s are actually pretty good shocks. I had 75000 miles on the last set and they were still good. The in cab adjustable controller is very nice to have also
