I checked the VX parts list and the VX Shop Manual / VX manual CD
and just want to confirm from those especially that have lifted, is there a difference between the rear shocks (Left vs Right)?

Ryan, I think the one off the left side looks dirtier than the one off the right...
I'm with Ryan, I've bought several used sets over the years, & I've never seen any difference.
What I have noticed, is that if any in the set have failed, it's always been one of the fronts.

hm strange.. my rears were much worse than my fronts... but i have hauled a lot of stuff through the rough streets of philly... including about 800 lbs of canned food and close to 700 lbs of stone (not at the same time)Originally Posted by Ldub

Did you all see the NIB OEM ones for sale on Ebay? I assume that is why boss man started this thread?

NP, please if you want to bid, DO! The listing is only one and I was just curious as the guy listed the rear as a right rear and I brought the question into my head..

So much for capitalism...if it was me selling the shocks, I would be P.O.ed right now...

When the time comes,I'm going to buy some Rancho's or something and send mine to get re-built. Little Beast got his re-built for $500 for all four!

What is the deal 1 shock? How do you happen to have 1 shock for sale? Did it fall off a truck?

Whew, I thought dub was gonna say that if any had failed it was always the dirtier one.
So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
and this voice came back and said..
"He's not in, may we take a message?"

That is what I did, got the Rancho 9000xls, although they are not as stiff as I would have liked, having the ability to turn them down to 3 or 4 when wheeling is a lifesaver. Those rocks are not so bad when the shocks are "squishier" so not so much bouncin.When the time comes,I'm going to buy some Rancho's or something and send mine to get re-built.

Not even...it's been my experience in many aspects of life, that the dirtier one usually has the greater SUCCESS!...Whew, I thought dub was gonna say that if any had failed it was always the dirtier one.
