    Question Rancho 9000XL Application with 3 Inch Lift

    Has anyone installed Rancho 9000XL shocks with a 3 inch lift from Calmini, the homegrown kit with ball- joint flip, torsion crank, OME Springs or the very expensive Independent 4X kit? The Rancho catalog only list a stock replacement 9000XL Shock:
    RS9000XL SERIES SHOCK Stock Front RS999214 qty.2
    RS9000XL SERIES SHOCK Stock Rear RS999215 qty.2

    Has someone cross-referenced some 9000XL's to compensate for the lift? I tried to ask Independent 4X how they did it and got no reply. Here is one of the 3 inch kits using the 9000XL's:

    Calmini was kind enough to give me their shock lengths with their 3 inch kit FYI:
    Front compressed 9.5 inches
    Front Extended 14.5 inches
    Rear compressed 13.5 inches
    Rear Extended 21.75 inches

    Front Extended 14.500 inches
    Rear compressed 13.150 inches. Rear travel-6.100
