Dual Remote Rancho 9000 shocks

Has anyone tried the in cab adjustable Dual Remote Rancho 9000 shock setup on our Ram trucks? How do you like it?

I do.

I like it, no complaints or leaks. It has been in for over 2 yrs with no problems. I made a special bracket to mount mine in the cab, if you want to see it look at my pics. Ran all my tubing through wire loom to protect it. Mounted the air, behind the back seat out of the eliments, and mounted the tubing hardware behind the cab. It's nice when you hit a rough section of road to adjust for comfort and not have to stop and get out, especially in the rain snow etc.

Did it make the truck ride nicer unladen? I did some more reading, looks like I just need the Single Remote setup, not running larger than stock size tires. More info please!!

You need the dual set up to adjust the front and rear seperately. I like mine, no problems after about 4 years. Being able to tune the damping rate as the pavement changes is the biggest advantage, especially whan towing. If I didn't have it I have Bilteins.

Hey Thanks for that Extreme, I mighta goofed and order the single instead thinking it would do rears and fronts seperate. Defintely want seperate controls over both.

I've also got them with no complaints. The incab controller is the way to go although routing of the pressure lines takes a little time.

Jeff -

my 9000s didn't hold up as well as I would have hoped:

#ad




3 dents in the rear forward facing shock, one of which leaked oil when the shock was under load.
