Shock Prices
I'm looking to get some rancho RS5000 shocks for my 95 f-150 to replace the crappy superlift ones i have in there. Any of you found a nice deal for them online? Looking for a cheap price :-X22

https://www.4wheelparts.com/ has them for $39 a piece, but free shipping.
They had a ten-dollar discount per shock for a while up till last week, but now its over with. And with free shipping. I was going to buy two, but didn’t. Oh well. Do some searching you may find a better deal. |

I bought my RS5000 shocks from Summit Racing. They were 32.50 a piece at the time plus 7.50 handling charge.
I must say that I'm not real happy with this particular shock and looking to replace these also. Truck still rides like a brick. Maybe the RS7000 or RS9000 would have been a better choice? The old saying goes, "You get what you pay for". I might look into the Edelbrock shock? Has anyone use their shocks? |

xaviar,
might I suggest you look at this thread? https://www.ford-trucks.com/dcforum/suspension/905.html Trucks like yours, be they Fords or Dodges, are designed to carry loads. When empty they seem to be widely known to ride like bricks or rocks. You could put softer springs on it, which woudl lessen the load carrying capability of it - but seeing as how you bought a F-250 instead of a lighter truck I would assume you carry loads with it. Besides the weight tips in that thread, lately the people I've been talking to since I got my truck agree that bigger and wider tires ride better. They absorb a good amount of the road shock. The down-side is that they probably carry less weight than a tire of equal size but thinner profile, and they aren't as great at high speeds. But if you stay under 75 MPH most all of the time, that shouldn't be a problem. |

Is there a difference between the RS5000 and RS9000 except that you can adjust the RS9000? Anyone else have a bad experience with the RS5000s? Should I get something different, like skyjacker or edelbrook?
