I understand that the Rancho 9000 shock has been discontinued.

I am in need of a replacement for a rear ( 9000 x ) on my '99.

What is the current equilivant for the 9000?

Any help appreciated ....
 






The are now called RS9000XL.

Instead of white they are a chrome like finish. I believe they have the capabilities of adding a reservoir as well.

They are now $99 a piece as opposed to $89
 






According to the Rancho catalog (2007 edition online), they still make the RS9000X, They even offer another version that should be even better, bigger body and piston.
Regular RS9000
Front - RS99229
Rear - RS99185
RS9000XL
Front - RS999229XL
Rear - RS999185XL
The XL part numbers do have an extra "9" in them.
The XLs also are nitrogen charged while the standard 9000s are cellular gas design
