Hello out there, I own a 05 reg. cab 4x4 stx. At 19,000 mi. I have decided to replace all 4 factory pogo sticks with the Rancho RS9000's. Trying to decide whether to put the RS9000xxx adjustable 0-2" lift, OR the standard RS9000 - 0" lift with the auto spring 2" lift kit.
The issue is, do I really want to use the RS9000xxx to compress the spring to gain the 2" lift, increasing the spring preload, or use the AS spacer and standard RS9000 to keep the spring preload stock. Could use some input if you have used either setup. Thanks, Mac.

 

IMO I think that I would go with the regular 9000's and the autospring. I think that increasing the spring preload will make the trucks ride a little harsh. I have the 2" AS and my truck rides just as good now as it did stock.
