Re: Rancho 9000s
Actually, the rear height could get affected. The OEM shocks are high pressure charged at over 300psi each. The original while 9000s caused about 3/4" drop on the rear of my H2 as they were not pressurized at all. However Rancho has since switched to a cheaper way of producing the 9000s and now gas charges the new silver 9000s. Granted they are not 300psi each but there is some gas charging pressure in them now.

Re: Rancho 9000s
How would the shocks alter ride height?
It is my understanding that springs affect the height, not the shocks. Shocks don't sustain a static load.

I love the irony there, don't you?
One more time, in case you, "didn't read what I said above"...

Are you saying they DO sustain a static load? Anything to back that up other than anecdotal?
