Anyone use the Rancho Quicklift shocks with a 2.5 inch lift???

[fat nick]

About 760 shipped. I paid a little more because I wanted a merchant I could return them to in case they didn't work. Got 2 from ebay a place in cali and 2 through summit on ebay. If you shop around lowest I found for all 4 shipped was around 650.

I have them @ setting 4 now and it rides like a different vehicle now. Ill post some pics in a bit

like a different vehicle good or bad? is installation any harder than normal shocks? they come with the springs right?

Good, my truck bounced like a car with hydraulics on it before. No its not a ready mount strut. I reused my factory springs and added my daystar kit to it. Installed like any other shock for one of these trucks.

thank you. do you have pics of the front shocks installed?

I'm looking at the rancho lift and I just wanted to ask a couple questions... this lift wouldnt go on for quite some time if I got it but never the less.

Has anybody heard from Fat Nick about how the combination of the two lifts has worked out after some time? curious about suspension wear.

 

[fat nick]

Still working great with no issues

I'm glad I found this thread. Your ride looks good. I just lifted mine this summer and got MT classic 2s with 35s. My next mod will be the Ranchos.

I wonder what my red Eddie Bauer would look like...

Thanks, I put a few more pics in the lifted pics section. The pics don't do it justice.

LT315/70R17 or 35X12.50R17 and a 2/3 pro-comp lift/leveling kit.

Those were the shocks that are like nothing excessive except for the base size is a little bigger than standard, they add no raise ability at all. I also run a 3/2 raise, and 305/70 wheels. I bought the 0-4" Rancho 5k excitement for all 4 sides. They perform excellent in my view, I have had them on there for little over per weeks time now.

@ fat nick. Could you post more pictures of your expedition? I am looking to do the same and wondered what it would look like. The pics you posted earlier are no longer there to view. Thanks

I stacked a spacer and the ranchos, and took the spacers out because the upper control arms were contacting the springs and it didn't look good at all. I think I am getting 1.25" out of the quicklifts and I'm running a 295/70/18 tire that rubs a bit on the sway bar at full turn. That's a little taller than 34 inches.
