Nine-Position Rancho® RS9000™XL Shock
Rancho Progressive Rate front and rear Coil Springs
The Rancho 2in progressive with the 9000 shocks has been great. I didn’t want a lift that would require 2k+ in correction along with the regearing that comes with 35+ tires. I matched the lift up with 255/80r17 all terrains. My 17 jku Sahara preforms exactly as I expected with this lift and the 33in tires.
Installed myself in one day. Then the next day I did the geo brackets. Jeep drives much better than stock. Play with the shock settings but between 2-3 is best for riding roads.Did off road it right after the lift and had 285/70/17 tires on stock wheels with the sway bars disconnected. Did great. Have switched to 275-70/18 and Fuel wheels since then.
Shipping was a day late but not critical issue. Installation instructions were good, toughest part of install was breaking bolts loose. Suggest spraying all bolts and let sit for an hour to ease install.
Installed rear first, easier, took about 2 hrs solo. Installation of front a bit tougher due to access to shock bolts, tight access. Did not remove front drive shaft, just make sure you use lever to assist in slipping springs in.
Total solo install took about 6 hours, with garage jack, air impact wrench. Lifted front 2.25, with winch installed and 2 on rear.
Shocks set at 4 on rear and 3 on front. Drives great. Kit would be perfect if it came with new sway end links for front. Only thing I need to add.

A:
You will not need spacers if you are not going to a larger tire than you are currently running.
