Rancho RS9000XL 0″ Front Lift Shocks for 1969-1973 Jeep Jeepster & Commando

Part Number: RS999119

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series delivers industry-leading versatility for classic Jeep and AM General utility vehicles. Featuring a 9-position manual adjustment knob, these shocks allow drivers to instantly tune damping levels to transition from smooth highway cruising to firm off-road control. Engineered for vehicles at stock ride height, they provide a significant upgrade in ride quality and load management over standard factory dampers.

Features

• 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine distinct levels of damping resistance to ensure the perfect ride for towing, hauling, or street driving.
• Large Shock Body: A 2.75-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased oil capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during sustained use.
• Nitrogen Gas Charged: High-pressure gas optimization provides a faster response rate to ensure consistent tire-to-road contact.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier against debris to ensure the longevity of the piston rod and oil seal.
