I just put rancho 9000's on my truck. The directions were.....well there wernt any. The ranchos really seemed to take out the feeling of the small bumps, I like how the truck feels now, much better ride. But there really isnt a noticable difference in feeling of turning the lil knob. All pretty much feels the same, I figured I could go from squishy to rock hard? And the knob only turns 180* right not 360*, the detents for the stops dont feel very positive. This sound normal? I didnt want to tweak on that little knob and break it. Man did my stockers suck BTW-:t

TIA

I've had mine about 6 months now and they work great. I, unlie you, could tell a real difference in ride between settings 1 and 9... When bobtailing I leave the rears on setting 1 and the front on setting 3. I think 180 degrees of rotation is right, though I'm going from memory. I only adjsut them when I hook up the GN, which I haven't done for a while now. (Dad got a 2500HD DA so I've been letting him "break his in"...) hahaha

I can tell a difference in settings 1 and 9. I run mine in setting 1 in all my day to day driving. but when I load up just my camper I put it in setting 7, if I have the camper and the 20' trailer I have it in setting 9. anything under 9 when fully loaded I bouce a lot.
