Rancho RS5000 vs Rancho RS9000XL

[Pepino]

Can you really feel the difference between the two shocks? is it worth spending a little more for the RS9000XL? Do i have to get them a specific size or its one size fits all?
i am about to click the buy button but cant decide if i should get the RS5000 or RS9000XL

You might want to use the search function & get the part numbers for the ones that will fit the VX.

XL are the newer ones to replace the 9x's ... That is what was told to me by independent4x4 guy.

From someone who's tried them all,
the best Ranchos are yellow and blue and say Bilstein on them.

The Bili 5150s will sit right between the Rancho pricing, and they will last longer, ride better and NOT LEAK like the 9000s.

Mbeach are the 5150's close to stock in stiffness?
