The timing of getting this review request is amazing. I installed two shocks for the front of my wheels about three weeks ago. While I was driving today, I went over a speed bump at a low speed and noticed that front end of my truck behaved erracticly and harshly. When I stopped to take a look, I noticed that one of the shocks was cock-eyed. I drove slowly the rest of the way home noticing that there was no suspension compression on the affected side. When I jacked up my truck and took out the shock, it came out in two pieces!In addition to this, the shocks didn't come with any instructions, and I had to quesstimate on the proper torque of the top nut and the lower mounting bolt. When I tried to download the manual from the Rancho website, it wouldn't recognize the part number, no matter what iteration I used to type it in.
Finally the threads were so heavily coated with overspray from the painting of the tubes, I had to remove it once during installation and clean those up. I have been working on all my vehicles for more than two decades, and I can't remember any part I installed that failed in this type of spectacular fashion.
I purchased these shocks because of the great reputation they carry. I'm willing to give this one more shot, and I hope the next shock I get works the way it is supposed to! If it does, I'll update and revise this review.
