Default Who has Rancho lift experience?

I'm looking for info about the Rancho 6" lift and their customer service is awful. What makes the 6" lift different from the 4"? They have the same part numbers on ranchos website meaning they come with the same components. I understand that you can buy different struts to compensate for the lift up front but how do you overcome the rear block difference.

Second question, what are the most ideal shocks to run? No off-roading, just a street daily driver but want to maintain comfort. Going to run 35x22 trail graps

What's the best pricing you've seen for the 6", I know they have a $400 rebate!

Thanks guys

The Rancho 6in and 4in lift use almost the exact same components. The difference between the 6 and the 4 is the longer strut in the front on the 6in. They use the RS7000MT front on the 6in which gives it the extra lift. The rear I am pretty sure is a 5in block. I would say the RS7000MT is your best bet. The 5000 is good shock but don't expect anything better than say stock quality. Call up [MENTION=142781]Stage3Motorsports[/MENTION]. They easily have the best prices hands down.

Their customer service is not horrible its just that their techs have no clue about the products. I asked several questions about the 7000MT and they COULD NOT answer my questions or than it was designed for the 2009-2014 models even though they are also made for the 2004-08...

But yes.. The only difference is the longer 7000MT struts

That makes sense, he spoke like I was the idiot until I started asking questions and he couldn't answer them.
