RS9000XL shocks with level

Is anybody running rs9000xl shocks with a 2.5" or 3" leveling kit or does anybody know if they will fit? Thanks!

Why wouldn't they fit?

Any replacement shock/strut up front will work as long as it is set to the zero setting (assuming it was an adjustable preload shock) and is for the F150 application. That will allow you to keep your steel spacer...

Or you can lose the spacer and get adjustable front shocks/struts...

Another thing you guys might try is a search for "rancho rs9000xl".....

It will fit as long as you dont get the 9000XL QuickLift shock; it's designed to lift the front end 2".
