Rancho Suspension
Rancho Shocks, Lift Kits, Suspension Systems, Jeep Suspension and Rock Protection
Rancho Suspension was born in the 1950s in Long Beach, California, as Rancho Jeep Supply, and quickly grew into a thriving off-road and performance suspension components manufacturer. In 1985, Rancho launched what would later become its best-selling shock absorber: The Rancho RS5000. In 1990, Rancho was purchased by Tenneco Inc. and quickly expanded to include the world's first five-way adjustable shock absorber, allowing off-road enthusiasts to adjust the level of compression/rebound damping to suit their riding style, and launched the first "intelligent" shock, the RSX shock absorber.
Rancho continued to grow and add fully engineered, industry-leading shock absorbers – like RS9000XL, Loaded quickLIFT, Pro Series and more – plus suspension systems to one of the world's most recognizable and technologically leading brands. Rancho suspension systems, shock absorbers, accessories and other related products deliver rugged performance for work and play in any on - or off-road environment. Rancho also offers the RockGear line of Jeep rock protection products, ranging from differential covers and skid plates, to steel shock mount protectors and tube doors.
Rancho products are manufactured and marketed by Tenneco Inc (NYSE: TEN) a $17.45 billion manufacturing company best known for its ride control and emission brands, including: Monroe shocks and struts, Walker Exhaust, Thrush Exhaust, and DynoMax Performance Exhaust.

CoilOver Suspension
What is a coilover?
Coilovers are suspension components that incorporate springs and shocks/struts into one product. The actual name coilover is an abbreviation of "coil-over shock absorber”. Most coilover suspension kits are height adjustable, allowing you to lower and raise your ride height.
Are coilovers better than springs?
Coilovers are a great alternative to a lowering spring set up because they allow you to adjust your ride height while they are on your vehicle, without sacrificing ride quality as you adjust. Unlike springs, you are not stuck to one ride height and suspension rate. Most race vehicles incorporate a coilover suspension system for maximum performance and adjustability.
Which is better coilovers or shocks?
Coilovers offer the best combination of performance, ride quality and adjustability. Most manufacturers offer a variety of spring rate options to allow you to find your sweet spot for daily driving and performance needs.
Are coilovers good for daily driving?
Yes, if you purchase a good quality coilover suspension system from Accesspeed. A good quality system will ride nice, assuming you do not have the settings dropped too far.
