I need shocks!!
I will be replacing my factory shocks and I am looking for some advice. I have 97 4x4 and what a good shock. I am looking at the Rancho RS5000 or the Pro Comp ES9000. I have seen alot on threads about the RS5000, but has anyone used the Pro Comp ES9000? What quality are they, ride feel, etc.. Any input would be helpful.

i just put in 4 rancho rsx shocks about 3 weeks ago.
the ride is more 'truck like' as its stiffer than it was, and its exactly what i was looking for. the install was pretty easy and the old shocks came off with no problems at all (no rust, i just sprayed some wd40 on the nuts before taking them off out of habit).
i paid around 200 for all four online, but i read afterwards were some folks got them for less that what i paid.
sorry i cant give you any long term feedback on them as i havent had them that long, but from the reading i did on them before hand i could not find anyone who had a bad thing to say about them.
