I had adjustable ones which were good no issues, the adjuster mechanism became 'stuck' a couple of times due to lack of maintenance/use. I have EFS now.

Mate,

Wondering if you ever managed to fit the 9000XL on your truck. I have a 2002 Hilux with an exisiting 4" lift but now I need to replace the old ProComp shocks. I'm also looking at Rancho. How did they work out for you? Could you tell me the part numbers for the exact shocks? I have hard time getting info from dealers.

Thanks.
