Good to hear you like them. I wont ever buy another Rancho product for my
truck, especially shocks. I bought and installed 4 of the RS5000s and within
a year, all the bushings were completely shot. I spend $50 for all new
bushings, just to have to replace all 4 shocks 6 months later cause they
were shot. As far as warranty.......well just wait, I am sure you will be
needing the warranty! Their customer service department was worse than going
to the customer service desk at Kmart on a Sunday........like I said though,
glad to hear you like them.
