Rancho Shocks

I've '05 4Runner with Cornfed lift. My rear is way too firm, so I started thinking about suspension upgrade. I might go with OME springs instead of Cornfed Spacers, but OME shocks are too expensive, especially with delivery to Canada. I can get Ranchos localy and cheaper. Rancho 9000X are adjustable which is good point.
What do you guys think of Rancho 9000X front strut and rear shocks? Does anyone runs any Rancho shocks? What is you opinion on them?

I run the Rancho 5000 on mine and I like them. I also changed the springs. The ride is firm but not bone jarring -- just the way I like it.

If you're running stiff springs, changing the shocks may not do much for the ride.

I was thinking of going with OME springs and adjustable Rancho 9000x shocks.

I ran the 5000's also on my last truck. I liked them a lot. I almost bought the 9000's, but at the time I did not think I would be using the adjustment very often. So, I can not speak for the change in adjustment, but I think Rancho's are a good way to go.

I used to have the Rancho RS9000 9761J up front but I replaced them with OME N91S after the right side shock got busted. They were firm as I had them in setting 4. The OME N91S are more comfy but almost as firm as the RS9000s at no. 4. I still have the RS9000s at the rear at setting 3.

HTH.
