Rancho RS90000XL 2.5″ Front Lift Shocks for 2000-2004 Nissan Xterra

Part Number: RS999188

Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series provides industry-leading versatility for your Nissan Xterra through its globally recognized adjustable damping technology. Featuring a 9-position manual tuning knob, these shocks allow drivers to instantly transition from a soft street ride to a firm setting optimized for towing or aggressive off-road use. Engineered to handle a 2.5-inch front lift, these shocks solve the compromise between daily comfort and heavy-duty performance by putting damping control directly in the user’s hands.

Features

• MyRide 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine distinct levels of damping force to ensure the perfect ride quality for any terrain or load requirement.
• Nitrogen Gas Pressurized: High-pressure gas charge provides a consistent response and minimizes foaming to ensure fade-free performance during spirited driving.
• Large Shock Body: A heavy-duty 2.75-inch diameter body provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during extended use.
• Protective Boot: A durable poly-vinyl accordion boot provides a physical shield for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal integrity against debris.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I adjust the firmness of these shocks?
Simply turn the 9-position knob located at the base of the shock body to your desired setting; Level 1 is the softest and Level 9 is the firmest.

Do these shocks create the 2.5 inches of lift?
No, these shocks are specifically configured for a vehicle that already has a 2.5-inch lift installed; they do not provide the lift height themselves.

Can I use these on a stock height Nissan Xterra?
These shocks are specifically designed for vehicles with Rancho suspension lift kits and may bottom out if installed on a vehicle at factory height.
