EDIT: asked a question about ProComp, but decided to move my message to a more appropriate area. Can't delete the message. Ah well.......

I have the rancho 9k's on my blazer with the incab remote....they are good shocks, but the incab remote part started to wear on me after a while ....every time I went in the mud, or on the beach, I got sand and dirt into the hose connections on the shocks....which allowed them to leak....it just gets to be a PITA to take the hoses off and clean the o rings IMO....if I had to do it again, I wouldn't have gotten the incab remote....it's cool, but not worth it...I think.

I currently have the adjustable procomp MX6's (I think that's what they are called) on my HD...they have 4?? 6?? settings....to be honest....I adjusted them the day I got them, and haven't changed them in a year and a half. Next time I get shocks, I am gonna go with something that isn't manually adjustable....they're cool, but the novelty wears off.

OK fess up.

Who voted and brought a two year old thread to the front page?

PELICAN · December 17, 2005

lol, I thought it was a new thread until I read your comment about the date wingnut and no it was not me who voted

I did note vote. One reason is that my truck only has 24,000 miles on it. Second reason is the truck is a quadrasteer with autoride. The stock shocks are Redish Orange in color. I have no idea exactly what shocks I could replace them with. So I guess when I do have to change them out I will just put the factory replacements on.

Not trying to sound like an a** or anything, I know that this is an older poll (originally) but I think that putting a price range on the shocks might be a good idea. Like price levels, just because its kind of hard to justify how some off the shelf La-De-Da shocks can compare to high level shocks produced by companies like King and Fox, and Bilsteins got a bunch of different levels of product ,along with some other companies. Just my .02
