My '01 GC (Laredo, I-6, towing pkg., OEM 'oversize' tires, otherwise stock suspension) has about 50K on it and I'm feeling weak shocks. Does this sound about right for the lifespan of the OEM units? At any rate, it's bouncing around more than the wife's Jaguar X-Type *Sport*, so I figure *something's* got to be done. Since I'm used to strut insert replacements on German cars, Jeep shocks are no huge deal financially and I've been shopping and reading what I can find. I don't currently do any offroading, but I won't rule it out in the future.
It appears that the Rancho RS9000 is my best choice for its versatility, warranty, and pricing (in that order - I like the idea of adjustability, lifetime warranty is *always* good, and I've found them online for just a tad under $300 for a set of four). The most recent posts I could find here were for pre-'99 installations and I'm wondering if, with more experience, any of your opinions have changed since then.
