I like them...but to each his own. But if you don't have a rear-swaybar then you are not going to be as happy with ANY shock replacement...a rear swaybar is absolutely necessary.
I've heard good things about the Rancho RS9000X shocks and plan on getting a set. A while back, I saw a link to a website offering a set of four at a price of $274 delivered. Had it bookmarked but I lost it. Anybody know the website I'm referring to?

On edit: I found the site: samsoffroad.com. Sells a set of 4 RS9000X for $274 delivered.

Just bought the 2002 excursion and the shocks are factory I ran across some KYB gas adjust shocks has anybody tried a set??

I just put a set of those on my 01, thought they would be good because they worked well on my car.
WRONG!!! I truelly believe these KTB's are worse than the stock shocks they replaced. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

I put KYB Gas a Justs on my 88 Lincoln. They were so stiff, I took them off. KYB provided their softer shocks, at NC to exchange. They are so-so.
I put Edelbrock IAS shocks on my 00 Ex 4x4 PSD. They are the best shocks I have ever tried. Softened ride AND improved handling, just like they said the would!
