Default rancho quicklift shocks

If youre using these what is your opinion of them please. I want to level the wife's truck and I'm not using plain spacers so these look like the best/cheapest option since its a new shock and spring combo. Website states 2.5" level out of them and I'd be combining with the 9000 series rear shocks.

Put these on my truck couple months ago and love them. I did 9000 in the rear as we'll. The fronts definitely levels out the truck. Easy install and easy to adjust. Worth every penny in my opinion.

I love em. The ride is very nice and the as advertosed 2.5" of level is a little off in my opinio being that my truck actually sits 3/4" higher in the front than the rear

I did the same setup. I love the way they ride. Significantly less body roll, bumps are smoother, and it leveled the truck perfectly. I'm running 5 in the front and 4 in the rear. I set them all at 1 when I first installed and got irritated because bumps were practically non existent. I would definitely recommend them and would buy them again

I leveled my "11 FX2 with 2" Auto Spring spacers and they felt every crack in the road, bounced around every parking lot entrance, speed bump and entering the driveway. I leveled the "13 Limited with the Ranch Quicklift and they are great. I too did the 9000's in the rear at the same time. I played around with tuning the ride and now have it at 5 in the rear and 4 in the front and they ride better than OEM. I would highly recommend spending the money and doing it right the first time. Also, if you do all 4 shocks, Rancho is offering a $120 rebate. Took about 10 minutes a side on the rears, didn't even have to remove the tire, the fronts took about 45 mins per side. Here's a pic. Don't laugh at the tires, I don't have a pic with the Nittos.

Thanks gents.
Being about middle ground pricing in the level lift are I was just curious. More than likely this is what I'll throw on it as she has no need for adjustable coilovers nor would I ever hear the end of it if the ride quality worsened.
