They have all 4 for $699. I don't know if that includes the $50 rebate for a pair. Also it gives no ship by date. I might give them a call after work.

Does anyone know of a similar alternative that is a little cheaper?

Their price does not include the rebate .
Unfortunately they think they won't be available until the end of the summer .

not sure if this is the right thread to ask this on but if i buy the rancho quicklift, can i still do a body lift or am i going to run into problems? kind of want to get a clear perspective before i go spend money on stuff i cant use.

a body lift doesnt have anything to do with suspension so if u did it, it would still be feaseable... the main issue is if u can really pull off the body lift with fabrication... it gets pretty complicated but if u can do it, make sure u post pics cuz i will personally leave my state to shake ur hand

3rd week in Nov.

This is the date I was given for release... As soon as that day comes around, I'll post pics of the shop (if allowed), the installation (without tires), and the finished lift; cost w/labor.

1. no AWD application
2. no ERC applicatioin

I have neither...

I got 4x4 with 265/70/r17, should fit without issue. If they aren't released by November, then oh well, more mods. No body lift for me...

Were you given that date by a local shop, or did you get it off some website? One of the sites posted in this thread has consistently had the ship date set two weeks later for the last 6 months. I am starting to think they will never be released.

Hi there... No, in this case I spoke with my retailer (has contracts with the city/county), and his wholesaler has a date. I've also been in contact with Tenneco because I'm impatient (not really, just eager). They've been advertising this QL system for about 12 months and need to deliver now. I currently have another product with them that, under warranty, I will return if I don't get my QL by the date (my retailer states). Tenneco won't confirm a date, I don't know what the hold up is, but they have a reputation to uphold and this waiting game is garbage. No website, to my knowledge, is more credible about this issue than Tenneco's, so I would only check with that site.

If it doesn't happen soon, then maybe it might be time to call them again... I'm sure I won't be the only one, but we do deserve a response regarding the delay. Maybe they just don't want to be the next rollover hazard like the tire company and Ford took heat for some time back... They are a great company, so I have no doubt that they will deliver, it's just a question of timing.

Sorry to bring up an old thread but this seems to be the one with the most info. Are there any updates on availability? Or did I miss the boat and they are available now?

Also, does anyone know if Rancho will warranty their finish? All other Rancho shocks I have had on vehicles (street and off road) rusted really quick and Rancho would not do more than point out there disclaimer about not covering finish due to off road enviroments. I would hate to spend $800 and have rusty struts 3 months later.

Thanks

No problem...

At this point, Rancho has pushed off release... I would say it might be easier to find El Chupacabra, Bigfoot or keep waiting - it's been 13 months.
