    more rancho

    So if someone is looking to get their kidneys back to functioning and lives in a metropolitan area with crappy bumpy roads what would be the setting suggestion?

    I have mine at 7 front and 7 rear. It takes the edge off from the potholes and uneven pavement. Any lower and it starts to feel like I'm floating down the street.

    Rancho included a card with mine with several suggested settings.

    I like mine at 4/4 for my bumpy dirt road, but firmer up front if I'm using it for off road.

    HAVE YOU CONSIDERED cutting your bump stops in half in the rear? At least 4 of us have now done that and enjoy a MUCH less harsh slamming effect. It made FAR more difference than the Ranchos.
    Here's two good threads about it:

    Definately sounds like worth trying.

    rear stops cut

    What a difference. I might not even have considered getting new shocks if I had done this early on.
    Thanks
