I considered them because I would install them myself. The people that have them love them, nice ride. After my research, I decided I wanted the vertical adjustability over the ride adjustability, at the time I thought they would work better with future "real lift".

yes, typically I see people who bought them like them..they are also the same people who whine about compressing the springs.. put two sets of spring compressors on for extra security. you can rent them for free from the zone

I have them on my truck and I love them. They ride just like stock and install is really easy. I went with them because I hate messing around with spring compressors. Gave me about 2" of lift which is what I wanted.
I got them from Amazon which is the best price I could find.

Thx for the input
I didn't know they don't have height adjustability. It doesn't make that clear. It mentions multiple different heights. Maybe you buy the height you want by the part number. No adjusting after. They said it goes up to 2.5". Was the 2" mentioned the largest lift?

The Ranchos are a 2" lift only. No hight adjustment. They have a ride adjustment knob on them that's makes them ride marginally softer or stiffer. I put mine in the middle.
Yeah it's for one shock. Cost me about $315 shipped for both.
One other thing to note is there's a left and right shock. From what I can tell the only difference between them is the placement of the adjustment knob so they both face forward and are accessible.

good info
Ranchos ride great and they're easy to install. In my case, they didn't give enough lift to make me happy, so I wound up removing them and going with Bilsteins at 2.8". I got less than 1.5" of lift from the Rancho Quick Lifts, my front fender heights went from the stock 36.5-37" to roughly 38" (with stock tires/wheels). With Bils they're over 39".
